John,
Do you really believe that Kodak's stock price has taken a hit because of the announced strategy change?
The drop in their dividend is what's killing them in the market this week.

John,
Do you really believe that Kodak's stock price has taken a hit because of the announced strategy change?

For those of you who don't have access to the WSJ site, there was some interesting information that doesn't make things sound quite as glum for film users as the CNN article does.
It doesn't...
So you're saying this guy is short, ugly, and lives under a bridge!??
Well, I doubly hosed that one up!

Try this:
Rockies eyed as plan to drill oil-rich refuge heads to defeat
The fact of the matter is that the ANWR debate in Washington is simply a political game that's being played by each party to earn points for their side. I don't believe for a second that either...
That you can't make images that are worth a darn shooting in mid-day light.
Interesting thread, especially Carl's response! I thought I was the only one who had a time limit rule for printing my images (3 months in my case).
I usually do a quick edit of my negs and...
Pete,
I didn't see that you mentioned which paper you were using (sorry if I missed it somewhere in the thread).
If it's something other than Epson's papers for the printer, you might want to...
Actually David, I'd be very careful about this combination. I tried it out and was very dissatisfied.
Without the center column on the Gitzo, the knobs are very restricted. Even with the center...
Josh,
If you're moving from a 3021, you'll be amazed at the difference in the 1325/48. I used the 3011 (same legs as the 3021, different locks) prior to getting my Gitzo, and I can tell you that...
I'd have to disagree with the statements about stability being greatly enhanced by under-extending leg sections.
On cheap tripods with small clasps that hold the leg sections, leaving some of...
I doubt there's any significant difference in either stability or capacity between the 3 and 4 section Gitzo's. The main differences I found between 3 and 4 sections are the added height you can...
Mark - If you ever get a chance to throw some photos of this setup onto the web, I'd love to take a peek. Feel free to e-mail some if that would be easier.
Richard's suggestions are good ones, especially the drive north through Blackhawk. This is known as the peak to peak highway and it offers very nice views of the continental divide. It ultimately...
Sorry, those two sites looked like they were on a separate line. Let me try to make these usable links:

Michael Reichmann's Luminous Landscape site has a forum area with a Digital Imaging category. The conversation tends to be more equipment oriented, though Photoshop questions come up quite...
Peter,
I moved from Manfrotto to a Gitzo CF early this year and I couldn't be happier. The Gitzo is definitely more stable than the Manfrotto, though I can't really say whether or not the leg...
Michael - Brainard Lake off the peak-to-peak highway in Roosevelt National Forest and Jefferson Creek in Pike National Forest are two sites that pop quickly to mind. A site in a National Forest in...
As an aside - I believe the assertion that the Golden Eagle Pass covers these fees may not be entirely true. It was explained to me (at Rocky Mountain National Park headquarters, late last year)...
As a concept, I don't have a problem with "user" or "impact" fees. I believe that MAINTENANCE of public lands is an appropriate use of our tax dollars, but I believe that users of a resource should...
Jorge - My understanding was that George claimed Piezography was equal to platinum, and superior to silver from a TONAL RANGE standpoint. If George is making the outright claim that Piezography is...
No offense Michael, but I tend to think that Stieglitz's comment may actually be irrelevant when one is talking about which process an individual artist feels represents his work best.
AZO is...
This is certainly an interesting conversation and one that is very timely for me personally.
Like many other long time photographers, I was a digital naysayer who swore I'd never cross over to...
One other thing Paul - Before you go to all this trouble, you might want to do a little more color tweaking to see if you can come up with a color profile that satisfies you. Metamerism isn't...
That's a good question Paul, and I'm not sure I really know the answer.
If I were starting from scratch, it would seem to me that the 1280 would be a better choice since it offers 2880dpi (over...
Paul - There are a number of other choices, though they are complicated by the "chipped" cartridges used in the 2000P.
The only really feasable option today is to use a continuous ink supply....
That's a really tough question to answer since there are a lot of variables that can be introduced. Inks are available from many suppliers now, and you really need to test each ink with different ...
Sorry - LaserSoft Silverfast.
I'm looking into midrange flatbed scanners for capturing medium and large format images. I'm leaning towards an Epson 1680 Professional right now, but I noticed a new 48 bit, 2400dpi HP model that...
I've used both the already mentioned 1200 and the 1270. If you were going to go with a refurbished printer, the 1270 is only about $20 more and it has a newer print head that gives slightly better ...
It sounds like my disillusionment (is that a word?) with photography lasted longer than most, though mine wasn't really for creative reasons as much as it was related to the business of...
I'm trying to put together a small lighting setup for some still life work I'm d oing (probably 2 power packs and 3 heads to start) and I'm curious whether anyon e can give feedback - positive or...
Another relatively new one that's showing some promise is called "Photovision".
While it's not specifically large format, there have been a number of LF related articles. They have also opted to...
There are a couple of posts in the archive about it being a graflok style back that's compatible with the MQC.
(I must have missed the post originally because the description provided there is...
Haven't heard anything in the last 6 months or so about the status of the 6x17 b ack for the MQC.
Does anyone have an update?
(or better yet, an early review?)
Be careful if you're going through an airport that has one of those bag size templates. It won't fit with the side pouch and you have to make sure the harness system is well bound and stowed. If...
Kevin - Since my post was mainly intended to let Ross know that an Ebony (a camera that his original message implied was an extravagance) might actually be in his price range, I didn't want to ...
Ross - Don't jump to conclusions about the cost of an Ebony! At current exchange rates, Robert White lists the RW45 for only about $150 more than the Zone VI. It doesn't have quite the movements of...
What is generally the accpetable tolerance for this type of measurement? Also, does anyone know what tolerances the manufacturers of film holders use?
It seems to me that these tolerances,...
I think it's a great film though it's kind of a specialized product. You can make prints from it but I'm not really sure what benefit (if any) you'd get from that over printing from B&W negatives....
