I have just read a very bad thread on this site about Kodak’s recent losses, and I am trying to figure out what action I should take as a LF photographer who uses both color and b&w Kodak films.
The thread is at http://www.largeformatphotography.in...ad.php?t=71552
In a worse case scenario, if Kodak should announce it is shutting down its film production, I believe I will have 1-6 months notice to decide if I want to secure a life time supply of film. However, if I should make such a purchase, but cannot buy the chemistry I need to process it, then what good is it.
With that in mind, I have heard that Kodak chemistry is no longer owned or made by Kodak, but rather some other company that is using Kodak’s name. If this is true, then does anyone know the name of the company that makes the Kodak chemistry? Does any one know if this company is profitable? If the company is profitable, then I would be more inclined to invest in a large purchase of film.
