Kodak - properly known as Kodak Eastman - was founded in America in 1888 and dominated the "Western" world of photography for the next 100 years, constantly in fierce rivalry with the Japanese Fuji. Similarly to Fuji the advent of digital photography at the turn of the century caused significant financial problems. A late attempt to win in the compact market was hit by the rise of mobile photography and bankruptcy followed in 2012. Fortunately the photography business has survived under the Kodak Alaris name - based in Hertfordshire, England - and they have delighted the analogue industry by pledging continued support for film production and the promise of bringing back old favourite emulsions.

A challenge in a good way
I think I'm still on a learning curve with this film, but I'm certain it's going to be a rewarding one. In plenty of sun, with exposure straightforward, it gave me beautiful clean results (and a welcome riposte to over-saturated phone shots). When I didn't give it quite enough light, or was perhaps too wary of the highlights, it gave a kind of 'metallic' effect that I found intriguing in its own right. Really under-done, the colours were unsurprisingly disappointing, though some editing of the scans showed me that all was not entirely lost - but that's more a lesson to me, however. Definitely one I want to keep exploring though.
This roll was shot on a workshop where I was mixing film and digital and everyone else was digital-only. Images from this roll were amongst those that got some attention when I shared them, just going to show that a film still has plenty to say and a vintage camera is a perfectly good way to make that happen.

Fine Grain, but finicky
I can't be too down on this film, as it was given away free as part of a promotion. It is a nice film and not at all grainy. It definitely loves light and can capture some beautiful landscapes even if the sky is slightly overcast, but in shady areas and lower light it seems to underperform and turn in to a muddy underexposed mess. I would say that it is probably a little on the expensive side to use as a daily driver, especially in medium format. But if you want a fine grained film for portrait or landscape work, this may be the emulsion for you.
