Sorry about the caps. I didn’t mean to vex thee. The last local film retailer here, closed his doors this spring. I get everything mail order. I've got a fridge full so I order in the cool months. The Kodachrome monopoly case is ancient history, no problem with selling film with processing these days. Mailing might be more complicated. I hope it all works out. 120 is what I use the most .It's a niche product within a niche market. It will be what it will be. Writing in caps won't make it cheap or persuade your local convenience store to sell it.
It's hardly going to be difficult to buy it, when we all use the internet.
Kodak *have* said they will have film/process/scan packages for super 8 film when it comes. Whether they'll expand this to 135 and other formats is anyone's guess but we must remember that in the USA at least, Kodak once lost a lot of money in a court case which decided that offering film with processing included in the price was sharp practise.
... and the nonstop whining about the “entitled whiners” is just as boring and unproductive as the whining.
One cannot rush these things.
Patience. I am still utterly staggered by the lack of patience some forum posters show.
I was not being impatient - merely cynical! I have stopped using E6. I only use C41 colour and B&W. Ektachrome in it's resurrected form was promised last year or did I imagine that in a dream?
... and that’s not whining or bashing, simply statements of fact as we know them.
Some people appear to have problems with facts.
... so have you seen or used the new film yet? No trying to give “attitude “ but sincerely curious.That’s because you ram those so called facts and pure opinion down people’s throats at every chance you get in the nastiest way a lot of us have ever seen. This is not a jab, it’s a fact....you are legendary in how incendiary you are.
I also see a different type of person using film in real life, very grateful and postiive people younger than 40 I will add.
I come here for the resources, the attitudes are truly depressing.

AI these people are on some serious old age drugs and can hardly type a response let have ANYTHING positive to say ever...their negative self deprecating remarks only further my belief in how truly shallow and near sighted they areThat’s because you ram those so called facts and pure opinion down people’s throats at every chance you get in the nastiest way a lot of us have ever seen.

A response technique worthy of Roy Cohn and his currently well-known protege. When accused of something one is guilty of, deny, then accuse one's accuser(s) of the same thing. Insistent projection. Sad.My posts are 100% free of ANY vitriol. I simply state facts and opinions based off said facts. Certainly nothing I write is forced down people's throats. That's ludicrous. Your posts conversely, are 100% stuffed to the gills with relentless vitriol.

Some people here are so against slide film (because they don't use it, or don't like it, or don't think other people should like it nor use it) that they don't give credit for Kodak's words and even doubt what their eyes tell them when real people get the beta product in their hands and post a video showing it. I guest those same people also don't believe in the NASA footage of the Moon landing. Some people, when reality doesn't fit their ideas, they blame reality for not being true.
I've put a reply to this in the Soap BoxYour attempt to smear me as a republican is as transparent as it is ineffective.
I've put a reply to this in the Soap Box
since that's where it belongs.
One more thing you elect not to see....I can't see the soap box...
What irks me, is how people can be negative about a new emulsion being put on the market. Whether or not you shoot slide, it's exciting. Some people are just fucking downers.Some people here are so against slide film (because they don't use it, or don't like it, or don't think other people should like it nor use it) that they don't give credit for Kodak's words and even doubt what their eyes tell them when real people get the beta product in their hands and post a video showing it.

I started out shooting slides film back in the late 70's because I wanted to see what I got and not depending of the lab prints. ...

I used to shoot several 100 foot rolls of Ektachrome a year. I have not used it for decades because it does not meet my needs. That does not mean that I do not want Ektachrome available. I would like to have Ektachrome easily available at a low enough cost to encourage use.
