Kodak just anounced a new consumer product, (but apparently only in the USA)

https://www.kodak.com/US/en/consume...nsumer&utm_content=20181102_patches_vb_button

Yes, Cloth Patches to sew on your clothing, (or perhaps your camera bag?)

Can Coffee Mugs be far behind? (I still have my ILFORD Mug, it came free when buying several rolls of film many years ago.)

(the patches are analog, they have one for Ektachrome 100.)
 
looks pretty cool if you ask me !
people sew patches on everything and anything
saw some kids ( 13-17y/o ) wearing kodak shirts recently
facebook and phone apps for labs to get film ( ektachrome ) processed
a guy ( idk 18-19y/o ) i see a couple of days a week shooting ektachrome super 8
good to see their gorillia advertising campaign is working, cause it is people under 30-40 who
are going to have to buy their products ...
 
Very cool... and so would be a coffee/tea cup.

Here people of that age do not even know of Kodak.
The last time I saw somebody using a S-8 camera was in the 70s...

Guys were are you living?
 
Where are we living... apparently we are living in our memories and dreams. Ha ha ha.
 
Oh be still my foolish heart!
 
My Kodak/Black and White logoed leather bomber jacket (circa 1985~) is going to be worth a fortune!


 
The only 35mm film I found on that site was 400 foot rolls of Double-X. Is there some other Kodak site that sell still camera film or sheet film?
 
I must collect these.
 
These warmed my heart!

This isn’t FB but like, like, love

Still films are marketed by Kodak Alaris, not Eastman Kodak. They aren't set up to sell directly to end-users. They only sell through distributors to retailers.

About a week ago, I commented on a post about Kodak on IMGUR. I was bewildered to find out that the Kodak name has almost vanished from the mainstream popular culture.
Many participants were surprised to find out that the company was still alive & most younger folks didn't even know the name.
 
It does look like the Eastman site has a better deal, with the Double-x being about $100 cheaper than 400 feet of trix from the Alaris people. I have used the Double-X from Eastman's site in 16mm for my 16mm still cameras. 100ft goes a long way in those little camera.
 
yawn
 
No Tri-X
 
I'd buy Kodak branded condoms but only if they're bright Kodak yellow... could be made to promote slide film.
 
I want a coffee mug shaped like a original Kodachrome metal film canister. Yellow body with a gasketed red top.

At the Kodak site there still is a shop selling motion stock, at least in the USA setting, not in the Germany setting.
At the Kodak Alaris site there is no shop at all. Maybe it is veiled depending on IP-address.
 

Just clicked on your link, then the UK link; seems like they're available here too, £9.99 each
 
The Kodak site does not work correctly anyway. So far I was asked at each opening of site for my location. Today even after cookie deletion I am always brought to the US site, without any chance to change that. I would have to use the right sub-URL from the start. And still then the content would be US related, except for movie stock missing in the consumer shop.
