Haven't seen it yet. Been waiting for it since early 2017.

Kodak, when they were anything but a cryptocurrency company,set up film manufacturing in China. So much for replacing lost US Jobs.

I never noticed the "c" in his name and I've known him for several years!
Nice catch and good suggestion.
Sorry Jerry.

Right...... And, if you believe that, I have a case of Kodachrome I'll sell you for the cost of a bottle of 18 year old single malt Scotch - and I'll pay for the shipping. The film is in my storage unit somewhere. It's gotten a bit warm, but should be good (for something).

But the Scotch bottle is also stored in a warm place.

Looks like Eastman Kodak in the good old U.S of A. will be the prime mover. I look forward to buying a newKodak Super 8 movie camera, & the film to go with it. Shazam! 😄

Why but the Kodak camera? You can't shoot with something like a good used Beaulieu 5008s?

I quit using Ektachrome (and Kodachrome) when Fujichrome was introduced, so am not too excited. And unless Kodak eventually makes 120 Ektachrome, I have little interest in it. Wouldn’t mind seeing Agfachrome CT-50 make a comeback, though.

I wish after bringing back Kodachrome. I always thought Ektachrome sucked with its green or cyan cast. I'd like Plus-X again (so now I use FP4).

But today it can only be processed to B&W.

You're right. I saw the "c" but always read it as Jerry C 41, like perhaps he was born in 1941. But yes, now I see the "C41". Any C22 or E4's out there?

I hadn’t either. Jerry, does the C41 refer to your internal processing chemistry? (106 F seems kind of warm to me) I thought you were a digital shooter
