kodak demise
I've been wondering about Kodak for some time. I still regularly use Kodak black & white films and chemistry for fine art photography. Much of it isn't stocked anywhere in Australia any more - I order my HC110 developer and 8x10" TriX film from New York. Based on what happened with Ilford there is a possibility that a niche area such as Kodak film, which has a very loyal following, may rebirth in a downsized spin off company. Ironically, large format film caemras are still going through a renaissance - some sort of reaction to digital (I tend to shoot on film and scan my negatives these days).
CCD chips are another matter however.
