Re: The Tri-X Factor, great article on the stills film
Nice story. How are things at Kodak. The still film department is now property of the Kodak UK workers pensionfund.
Will they keep what they have now. Or is an even more tight slim down in works?
Odd how Anton Corbijn purchases such a lot and keeps them in three fridges. Now fearing their expiry
Must we believe that anybody can notice a difference of a fresh Tri-X and one which is five past printed-on expiry?
Especially when they were kep in cooled storage. Corbijn better worries about processing then
and purchase a pallet of D-76 Microdol Xtol or whatever he wants for his soup.
