Malcolm Note 1# "Sex Pistols" were a punk group of the previous century. Note 2# "Record" is a primitive recording medium superseded by the CD & DVD. Note 3# "Film" has been replaced by digital cameras. History is easy to re-write :-) Malcolm Coming soon---> www.wetcatphotos.co.uk

Actually, Herb, it isn't too bad! At one time my sister-in-law's father worked for Technicolour in the UK, and we could get substantial amounts of film for no cost from him (don't know whether he had to pay for it). My brother and I both used it, and the quality was fine. The only drawback was that it could only be processed by Technicolour, and of course it came back unmounted.

if you go to the Photo Marketing Association's web site (http://www.pmai.org) and download some of the public access reports, you will see the numbers, at least to the end of 2002.

Re: Kodak examining pro-usage of film too?
would you want to use movie film in your 35mm film camera?
