Especially with the recent breakthroughs in film technology that could increase speed 10X for the same image quality. (Lots to work out yet, but it's coming). Kodak has released a series of Kodachrome mini-labs that don't require a chemist on duty all the time. And if they sell enough of them, they have a new emulsion in the wings - so I hear - that is ISO 100 and has finer grain than PKM. I pray for that day to arrive. I am with Erwin, my favorite film choice with Leica glass is Kodachrome. - -- Eric Welch Carlsbad, CA http://www.neteze.com/ewelch As far as I'm concerned, treachery will sometimes bring loyalty into question. > From: Erwin Puts <imxputs@knoware.nl> > Reply-To: leica@topica.com > Date: Sun, 23 Apr 2000 12:37:14 -0700 > To: leica@topica.com > Cc: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > Subject: Kodak versus Fuji: is that the issue? > > It is really a pity that Kodak has lost all interest in these > K-series as they could be the cutting edge in emulsion technology. > But Kodak also has lost interest in the traditional B&W films.
