Kodak films direct from Eastman Kodak (was: Kodacolor 100. New)

I thought Ektapan sounded familiar, so I checked my Kodak Master Darkroom Dataguide (circa 1970) and sure enough found Ektapan 4162, available in sheets, 70mm rolls and 3.5" rolls.

I've got 5x7" Ektapan in my film fridge, I need to try it. I recently got out a Polaroid pack film, exp date of 2002, slapped it in my RZ67II, it still works. Amazing, much lower contrast but the color is good.

If the world thinks this is retro it will sell like hotcakes!

Except most of the world wouldn't know what a hotcake refers to.....

So the sheet films are still distributed by Alaris and remain TMax, Portra and Tri-X (320) in name?

As of right now, yes. But I don't think that's necessarily likely to stay the case for too much longer.

Perhaps only until the next finishing cycle or box/ label printing operation.
