Re: [Frameworks] Kodak black leader discontinued

  6-mil Kodak Opaque Black Acetate Leaders... in all formats.
 
  I am aware that the magnetic film Kodak carries is made by Pyral, however
  I
  am surprised to see 16mm magnetic film
  stay in the catalogue longer than all formats of black leader.
 
  I haven't looked around much yet, but I suppose ORWO still carries black
