Ektachrome E100 test rolls are OUT

[ME Super]

Or more correctly, Kodak Alaris, not Eastman Kodak.
Eastman Kodak markets and manufactures motion picture film.
Kodak still film? Kodak Alaris markets it, and buys it from Eastman Kodak, who manufacture it to Kodak Alaris' orders.

And from the looks of the feed on Facebook, Kodak Alaris is actually marketing their product. I've seen a lot lately about the beta testing of new Ektachrome. Lots about Ektar, Portra, T-Max, and Tri-X too.

By the way we have developed shots of the new E100 now!! i like what i see

Hi,

While I think it is appreciated that the image you have posted is a good reference point of where we are at with Kodak's re-introduction of Ektachrome, I am a bit disappointed that on a photography forum you have both decided to attach the photo to your post without permission from the photographer and do not even go as far as giving my friend Michael Turek proper credit in your main text.

I PM'd you about this in a polite manner and you did not respond so I have reported the infraction to the mods and have brought it to light in this thread.

I mean you no disrespect but as a friend and fellow professional in regards to Mr. Turek, I hope you understand this and the mods do too and remove the image it self from the thread.

Thanks for your understanding,

Dan

So far we called Eastman Kodak just Kodak, so mostly I stay with that.
But you are correct of course, Matt.

Post #1743 in the Kodak reintroduces Ektachrome thread has the same image. You better report him too.

Thanks for the head's up, I'll do as I did on this post and ask the person to remove it first.

It seems the forum software automatically turns some image links into embedded images, so it’s not as if the above poster downloaded an image and reposted without attribution, but that the software turned the Instagram link into an embedded image. I’ll ask Sean if there’s a way to tweak that.

Thanks for that, I did wonder about it

I might also add that even if just a link is provided it is in my opinion desired that the copyright owner be given proper credit in the main text body. It just helps to always keep respect for the original copyright owner at the fore in a place that still values the power of the photographic image.

Many thanks in advance!

Their marketing department is definitely busy. They're also investing in talent. Kodak recently received an Industrial Design Excellence Award, known as the IDEA, for their Printomatic camera, which is pretty cool if you ask me. I respect them because they're not sitting on their hands wondering what's happening; they're designing stuff for new markets, trying it out, and seeing what sticks. More power to 'em.

That is about a digital camera producing prints on a non-halide paper.

RE: Inline linking:

Inline linking: Inline linking involves placing a line of HTML on your site that so that your webpage displays content directly from another site. We now commonly refer to this practice as embedding. For example, many bloggers embed videos from YouTube on their blogs to illustrate a point or initiate discussion. While there is some uncertainty on this point, a recent case from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals concluded that inline linking does not directly infringe copyright because no copy is made on the site providing the link; the link is just HTML code pointing to the image or other material. See Perfect 10, Inc. v. Google, Inc., 508 F.3d 1146 (2007). Other courts may or may not follow this reasoning. However, the Ninth Circuit's decision is consistent with the majority of copyright linking cases which have found that linking, whether simple, deep, or inline, does not give rise to liability for copyright infringement. For discussion of these cases, see The Internet Law Treatise. In addition, merely using an inline link should not create trademark liability, unless you do something affirmative to create the impression that you are somehow affiliated with or endorsed by the site to which you are linking. Thus, embedding media in your online work should not expose you to legal liability.

I'm not aware of any issues surrounding embedded links or imagery. Google images and other sites have billions of images doing this when you search for imagery. Now, attaching someone's work and uploading it here is different. Also, I agree that it's a common courtesy to give credit.

Actually my post was about looking for new markets where Kodak might find some profit, which I appreciate from them. I especially like that they are exploring new markets while concurrently developing new or reintroducing old traditional film stocks.

The Printomatic is aimed at the Instagram generation and doesn't use film, true, but makes an instant print and a digital file, which the neighborhood kids cannot do with a phone. I could see the teens in my neighborhood trying one of these over an Instax, which is more expensive and as far as I know doesn't make a digital file.

I agree, they use the instant rage. The Zink paper is already 10 years old, but now for the first time Kodak jumps on that boat.

Thanks, infringement or not, this last bit is good to remind folks of once and awhile.

I'm working on a plugin that will show external link information to any images embedded. That might help a little.

That is great on many levels, thanks Sean!

One of Fujifilm's new square format INSTAX cameras makes a digital file along with the analogue print, should you choose to make a print. It also allows for some digital manipulate of the image in the camera before printing to film.

I only linked an Instagram post... don't feel i needed to give credit.

I didn't get the point of those. Might as well just get one of the Instax printers and use in combo with your favourite camera or phone.

I've just looked at Abebooks eye watering price for Moriyama's Shashin yo sayonara

I didnt get the point either. The digital camera in the Fuji square camera as well as Kodak's has awful image quality, even for small prints. The INSTAX film is actually a beautiful film and coupling that to a horrible low quality cheapo sensor seems like a poor decision.

The link you provided went straight to the creator's page showing exactly who made the image. The whole idea that you somehow did anything unethical posting that link is ludicrous.

hi ste_s
according to a review i read the digital images aren't intended for anything but a camera memory bank
so you can edit them before committing to 1.5$ instax film.
i worked at a portrait studio years ago and they shot digitgal and 70mm flm at the same time
the digital was so the client could proof the images and commit to the sale and not have to come back when the lab
sent the digitgal-proofs back...seems this is the same thing.. if i was spending 1.50$ / exposure id like to be able to proof too..
not sure why it matters that the images are low rez or whatever, if when printed on their film and tangible they look good..
