Said this many times before: stop spreading rumours Trendland. Your topics are writting in such a gibberish that it only confuses people. Please state a source with your findings. This is not the first time you spread things as a fact while you provide zero proof to your statements.

But at last I was right - wasn't I?

with regards

PS : The problem with some of your guys is : There is only coming unqualified comments from you!
Nothing else.....And if you want sources how would it be with own investigation?
Instead of cope instructions.

And you think posting unsubstantiated rumors of Ektachrome 120 being reissued sometime in the future as fact since B&H still has it listed as discontinued on its website is constructive? Is it time for another Kodachrome thread? All B&H needs to do is change No Longer Available to Coming Soon. I think that is how your argument goes.

Read the full introduction again - may be you understood something wrong.
with regards

PS : By the way : B&H isn't a source of information it is just a curiosity (they listed Ektachrome120 with nearly same package design as the New Ektachrome and that "New" on the 5pack E100G out of 2002 looks like as Ektachrome120 is still there !
But it will come next year. I explained it on the "Ektachrome is back " thread - the source is Kodak.

I honestly can’t understand anything that you just wrote in your P.S.. I’m not kidding. These words do not make any sense at all in English.

Forgetting to state : This is the next problem with some of your guys (it is only a special "group" of people with allways the same behavior)
If you come to an end with contraproductiv comments caused from a lack of arguments you claim that you can't understand because of wrong english? But before you got this wrong english ?
So if you have some problems : why do you not go away ? Instead of coming most in form of a group
with contraproductiv and simular comments?

Anonymous nonsense affectation by means of which the Internet is used for irresponsible blathering. Example: "trendland."
:smile:.." Sal Santamaura " is by the way also rather unusual - but who cares about. So please should we better come back on topics !
Have you shot Ektachrome 120 in the past? Was it the right film emulsion to you ? Can you remember the pricing. Is a lab avaible next to you ? What would be the max. price you would spend on a 5pack of New Ektachrome 120 for example?

with regards

PS : Sorry to say again but that kind of reply what is comming from you isn't suitable as a statement wich has any information like that replys from your colleagues above.
PPS : If the idea is coming next by you to state the same about this thread (thread has no information)
I will repeat : The information I gave is indeed a sensation (who had expected it so fast) - and it is not based on a B&H side. If you don't like it - no problem:whistling:

I'm not trying to be counterproductive at all. Generally I understand about half of what you write, and usually that's enough. I respect that you're trying to communicate in a language that is not your native tongue. I only know one language well and I know how hard it can be to communicate in another language because I've tried.

But your english is poor. When people say you're posting "gibberish" they are absolutely correct. Please look up that word.

"Instead of cope instructions." That is gibberish you wrote in this thread. It is not a sentence and it has no meaning at all in English.

"To the stand of information from yeasterday" is also gibberish. It has no meaning in English. You post a lot of gibberish in threads here which is fine but it makes it very difficult to understand what you're actually trying to communicate.

I visited your thread for one reason only, the title. Anyone that reads "Ektachrome 120 will come back next year!" as a thread title would expect to find a press release from Kodak or at least a link to a source. Instead there is nothing more than an unsubstantiated rumor started by you, which is disappointing and a waste of time. And it doesn't matter how many times you say "But it's true!" because it's still unsubstantiated rumor. Please look up "unsubstantiated" if you need to. That's why this thread is a bummer, beyond the gibberish and nonsense about B&H. If you had titled the thread "I PREDICT Ektachrome 120 will come back next year!" I never would have clicked.

Seriously - I have no idea of cope instructions too:sad:...? I can't find the word and did not remember why I used it. Also cupe, cope a.s.o. would make any sence. It might be a failure from grammar?

But then I found the failure : " contraproductiv instructions" yeah THATS what I also remember.
So it was my tablet what often change words without asking me. I obviously did not notice that shifting into "cope" so you are totaly right - that makes no sence (in 98% the same case when auto remediation is working).
So we have it : contraproductiv instruction : That means to teach others (may be they are well knowing what they do and don't want to be teached). By the time the intention to teach has something to do with ourselfes it is not totally wrong but to teach yourself is quite right and a better way.
And contraproductiv is also meant in concern that it will bring no profit to the wise.
I stated, I am knowing, I got a great source, and you don't want to hear, you want that source otherwise you doubt ! Yes my friend but that's more your problem not mine isn't it.

Instead of being lucky to hear about - I can't believe....:pinch:

I stated it just before in the other Ektachrome threat (the great one with some thousand postings:smile:
It has to do with an enormious demand on Ektachrome Kodak itself wasn't able to belive on before.

How enormous is the demand? Can you give any estimate of either the amount of film available or the number of pre-orders?

I can't say Brian but it could be Ektachrome is temporaryly sold out next. PE refered about the dimentions of first masterrolls I remember from last year. Some 10.000 135-36 equivalents a single roll. If we imagine Kodak was busy the last month they backed a couple of them first?
No but I can't say - the info I was given is : "demand on Ektachrome is on highest level much more Kodak has expected"
In concern to this a 2017 Jan. Interview stated (I forgot the Name but hasn't that been the New production manager for Ektachrome?) Kodak first studies have found out that the demand let them sell 10 Million 35mm Films a year:cry:????
That would mean in the long term perspective (max.10 years) Kodak will produce 100milion Ektachromes in 135-35:surprised::surprised:???
So now the demand is much higher?
1) I stated it long before : That guy had a bad day
2) he comes from moving picture departement and mixed it with "frames" ?
3) Kodaks original plans have been to the longer term with 1 Million Films per year wich would make
indeed 10 Million Films in 35mm equivalents.
But that all was before Kodak became financial trouble in a form PE's shares came more down at all.
So the today's scale is definitivly much under the volume of 1million 135-36 equivalents/year!

Probably it's his real name ...
It is indeed. And, not only do I not anonymously hide behind a "screen name," as best I can determine, among the 326 million people who live in this country, there are only two with that surname. My wife and me.

Anyone else willing to stand up like an adult and be seen as they make Internet forum posts? :smile:

Little correction Brian - there is one O too much.Some 1.000 (thousand) 35mm equivalents may result from a single masterroll. Just from remind 6000feed long x around 28 lines of 35mm from the width should make ~ 28.000 135-36 equivalents. Concerning to the numbers of masterrolls from Kodaks first run (that one after the test run) it may indeed result in just these around 30.0000 films per masterroll.

B&H is "famous" for directing you to pages with "product no longer available", I wouldn't mind if their archive pages would retain specs and prices for historical reference but all you get is a "stub" listing. As to 120 Ektachrome, different base thickness, different coating line, and Kodak's recent difficulties with backing paper put this in the "remains to be seen" category.

I'm not sure why you are trying to pick a fight, my name is not quite John Smith common but it is pretty common, when I Google my name I come up with quite a few hits, there are seven in my home town alone, including a convicted felon and a minor league baseball player, but there is only one "darkroommike" a handle I have used since Hotmail was a thing.
