Well, actually, it IS our church. The only one I have.
Whenever Kodak discontinues a film stock it's tragic -- the loss of
7250 makes it very hard for me to make color films anymore. When
Double-X disappears it will be even worse.
Kodak seems to share Mr. Carlile's feeling that stocks are just
carriers of information, and now Kodak seems to believe everything
should be boring and all the character can be added in DI.
Fuji stocks are becoming more popular because of Kodak's foolishness
here.
Sad times for all, except Mr. C.
