Nice shots; what was the location (museum, airport etc.)?
My last roll of Ektar 25 was shot at 12.
Nikon FE with a Vivitar 17mm or something. Lens might be just a little mushy, just a touch, on the edges.

Is the stupid charm bracelet digicam (Charmera?) just a licensing situation? Eastman Kodak isn't actually distributing this stuff, is it?
Now that I did not know. You win the game (for me)!

That's pretty amazing. Zooming in one can read all the lettering. Cool.
Its good to see a new kodak film back on the market, was just reading about this today.
Does anyone know if it has any resemblance to the consumer film from the 1980s era at all, or is this a brand new formula?

Telling us you haven't read this thread without telling us you haven't read this thread?
Sorry, I had a skim through it, but didn't see anything pop out on the subject.
Fair play, that's what happens when a thread goes seriously off-topic! Looking at the early responses, I think the consensus is that the two "new" Kodacolor films are the old Pro Image 100 and Color Plus 200. Or folks, am I incorrect?
Can't blame you; it's 17 pages. Take it with a grain of salt, but here's what Copilot makes of the question what this long thread says about your question:Sorry, I had a skim through it, but didn't see anything pop out on the subject.
Btw, the above really should be taken with a grain of salt as some of the AI output is evidently bogus - such as the allegation that this would be Vision3 technology in these films. That's nonsense. But in this case, I asked for essentially a summary of this thread, and the idea was put forth, so it's technically 'correct'.The Photrio forum thread confirms that the new Kodak-branded color negative films—such as "Kodacolor 100"—are not the same formulations as the original 1980s versions, despite sharing similar names.
Here’s a summary of the key points discussed in the thread:
New vs. Old Kodacolor Films
• Branding vs. Formulation: Several users clarify that the new "Kodacolor 100" and similar films are not reissues of the original 1980s emulsions. Instead, they are new Kodak-branded films produced by Eastman Kodak, likely using modern Vision3 motion picture film technology that has been repackaged for still photography.
• Differences in Look and Behavior:
• The original Kodacolor films from the 1980s had a distinct color palette and grain structure, optimized for consumer use and C-41 processing.
• The new versions are believed to be aesthetic reinterpretations or repackaged motion picture stocks, possibly similar to Kodak Vision3 250D or 200T, but with a Remjet layer removed for C-41 compatibility.
• User Observations:
• Some photographers who tested the new films noted differences in contrast, color rendering, and grain compared to vintage Kodacolor.
• There’s speculation that the naming is more about marketing nostalgia than technical continuity.
Manufacturer Details
• The films are being sold under the Kodak brand by Eastman Kodak, not Kodak Alaris (which handles consumer film distribution). This distinction is important because it suggests a different production and distribution pipeline, possibly targeting niche or boutique markets.
• Some users express concern or confusion over the lack of official technical data sheets, which makes it harder to compare the new films to their historical counterparts.
Processing Considerations
• The new films are C-41 process compatible, but users advise caution, as some labs may be unfamiliar with these newer Kodak-branded films or may confuse them with older stocks.

I think that's a good summary, yes.it's believed to be rebranded kodak gold and and proimage lines of their film, as it co-incides with these brands now being dropped from kodak Alaris?
In my observation, the new Kodacolor 200 is NOT Gold 200. Better than Gold 200 in terms of color, just my opinion.
