Bad news for those of us into stills photography, but half way down the page or so...

It would leave the business focused on printers, cinema film stock and chemicals.

We had one of their 35mm high-speed cameras in the Blue Audio Visual shop when it was still open, I suppose it must have been at least 10 years ago.

I think it was probably one of these, I can remember the back being very 'boxy' and black...

Once they are gone that's it.

I'm pretty sure that's not the first time Clive has said that...

Our filmstock sales has gone down with about 50% each year for the past 2-3 years and this year so far we've hardly sold any film. I think we've only processed about 10-20 rolls so far. I'm quite amazed about how fast this shift has come and Kodak's financial troubles does not help AT ALL. It's lik...

If you're PC based (or have access to a PC for at least the import/export stages) you can do it with Virtualdub as long as you can turn it into a file type that it will recognise.

I sold one to Tim (etimh) a couple of years back BTW...
