    Kodak publication J-107: Xtol for Small Tank and Tray Processing

    Eastman Kodak hosted all this stuff for several years after Alaris was created. Alaris must have hoped this would go on forever.

    Ferrania P30 available

    Actually, our main interest is with end users. Resellers are extremely important and we plan to support them in ways we haven't seen for many decades in the film business - but even they would admit that the most important people are those who buy the film and use it. You are entirely correct...

    Ferrania P30 available

    Ferrania is the only company explaining what they will do or think will be done. They don't have interest in end-users, apart the Kickstarter campaign, they want resellers. For that they have to produce a lot of films. They opened the sell of a batch in limited quantity. Soon they will bring the...

    New (as of 2019) airport CT scanners

    I am not much interested in what Kosmophoto says, but in what Kodak/Kodak Alaris say. There is no new statement from Kodak. Here is the new information sheet from Kodak Alaris https://imaging.kodakalaris.com/sites/uat/files/wysiwyg/pro/CIS_E30.pdf The crucial, new part (underlining by me)...

    TMAX 400 vs Delta 400

    X-Tol is on the 4th line from the top. The Freestyle and other web-page listings are for old stock - Kodak Alaris isn't selling any new T-Max RS. There may be some distributors who have some stock of the Tetenal (pre-receivership) produced product. And of course there is always a possibility...

    TMAX 400 vs Delta 400

    Matt, TMax RS is not discontinued, also Xtol is not in the list. That list contains products that had Catalog item # changed. See https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/TMax_RS/Ntt/TMax+RS/N/0 for the 20L they say "more in the way" What is discontinued (I think) is the 1gal , but not the 20L ...

    New (as of 2019) airport CT scanners

    Someone posted a Kodak Alaris response about 2 or 3 weeks ago. It was clearly written by a public relations person who didn’t have information to offer, but had to say something so said something without meaningful substance.

    Is there going to be 220 available again ... one day?

    True... the 220 size has different effects depending on if camera loads film internally or in backs, I use a Pentax 67II and a Mamiya RB. Changing backs in the RB is nice, but also it is the 67II agility in a shooting. Mamiya and Pentax 645 sported both agility and backs. I guess that 645 was...

    ...whole scanner business is quite veiled when it gets into details, understandibly. But the silence of film manufacturers on this issue, to whatever direction, is puzzling. Or is that even another form of the Kodak Alaris backing-paper approach of we can't help it, so we better not talk about...

    How much will Kodak film prices increase?

    And note well please, those price variations have nothing to do with Kodak Alaris...who sell to distributors at *the same price*. It is these distributors who sell onto retailers at different prices, and then the retailers who finally set the prices you pay. A distributor which deals more in the...

    Yes... and the most expensive component of a 135 roll is the cassette... Emulsion is 5 to 20um thick, so a roll (or 810 sheet) has between 0.20ml to 1ml of dried emulsion, taking the worst case with 1L of dried emulsion (most is gelatin) they make 1000 rolls, wich has a retail value from $4000...

    KPP2 reduces its shortfall by increasing debt in its subsidiaries. They suck from Alaris its profit plus $192 million in 15 months... Loading a subsidiary with debt can be an strategy for selling it, as the cash required for the acquisition is lower, and this finances the purchase for the new...

    In 2016 the net assets for Kodak Alaris were reported as a $236 Million shortfall. In 2019 the net assets for Kodak Alaris were reported as a $100 Million positive value. Kodak Alaris' Adjusted EBITDA for 2019 was a respectable $48 Million. Kodak Alaris has the advantage of some whopping tax...

    There is one observation made by 138S that definitely does bear more investigation - his comment about Kodak Alaris RA-4 paper production, distribution and sales. I would really like to know more about what has happened and is happening about that. Possibly Henning could chime in on that.

    Prepare the calculator. Alaris say more lies than they can speak. That "manufacturing overload" is false, it could happen for a week after a breakdown... but it's a bare pretext to fix a price. See here 0:12min This is the relatively "low capacity" manufacturing line that ilford has. Two...

    ...much cheaper than my local retailer can buy it from a Canadian wholesale distributor. In both cases though - the US distributor selling to the US retailer and the Canadian distributor selling to the Canadian retailer, they pay the same price to Kodak Alaris, outside of shipping and import costs.

    IMO what Alaris did is "Icing and no cake". It's easy to be a motivator if another one makes then industrial effort, makes the investment and takes all financial risk of the operation. Me, I'd also have applauded the Vision 3 people initiative, if I had granted the distribution of a new product...

    @Agulliver There's always the non trivial chance that Kodak Alaris, Ilford, Fuji ... sells to the US distributor at a lower price. The US is a large market, with a population above 300M, served by a single distributor. The EU might be a larger market, with or without the UK, but is served by...

    This is inconsistent with what my Eastman Kodak sources tell me - Kodak Alaris were the ones who were the main motivators behind the E6 revival. It probably wouldn't have happened if there was not a perceived benefit as well to the motion picture marketplace. Many of the people in Kodak Alaris...

    I think the same is true for Ilford products as well and yes, it is irritating. Perhaps it's a market size kind of thing, but still irritating.
