it all depends on how much it cost to develop this new emulsion. movie film
is the last holdout of any consequence, and worldwide regular film sales are
declining faster than Kodak forecasts, so anything to hold that off a little
longer is worth trying. Fuji is close to being in the same straits.
strangely enough, Agfa is suffering least because most of its films in the
US are sold as house brands and they are declining the least rapidly.

Of course. I misinterpreted your previous post. It's only a matter of time
before it all disappears. I'm surprised they're working so hard to prolong
the inevitable. Although I suppose there is still profit to be made in
supplying the last wave of film shooting cinematographers. Of course this
use goes much beyond major motion pictures, since a lot of commercial
production is still shot on film. But it's all changing.
