----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark Stringer" Subject: Film for the future
> Since Kodak has been changing emulsions and packaging lately, and announcing a shift into digital, printers etc away from film products, what company do you think will have a long term commitment and consistency to their film products (especially B&W)? I can see one, maybe two generations of improvement in film technology, but no more. Count on a whole bunch of consumer emulsions disappearing, and probably a bunch of pro emulsions as well in the not to distant future, within a few years or so. I don't see film going away for a while, just for a lot of the choices we now have. I have been a long time Ilford film user, and will continue to be. If you are happy with what you are using now, keep using it until you can't get it any more, then try something else. William Robb
