Need to find HIE asap

BWKate · 01-10-2008, 04:07 PM

I ordered 20 rolls of Kodak HIE the minute I heard it was discontinued. The local shop where I ordered it from just informed me that they couldn't get the order filled. I wish I had known back in November when I ordered it. Now I have none to speak of and I was hoping someone could either sell me my last 20 rolls or tell me where I can hopefully buy 20 rolls by mail order or courier.

Thanks for the suggestions. I just ordered it from Henry's in T.O. and if that doesn't fly then I will ask again.

If not downtown, I saw a few boxes at Heny's in Oakville

For those of you who are interested, we at Photo Central do have about 20 rolls of HIE available. These will be the last rolls that we can get as far as I can tell. We are hoping to find a source of other infrared film soon (Rollei perhaps), but at this point we cannot be sure of anything in that regard.

Cheers,

I'd love a replacement that was available in 120/sheet sizes-Kodak IR in PMK was great!

I was wondering where everyone heard that HIE was being discontinued ? I have always bought it and just bought some more but i keep hearing that its gone ! I checked Kodak's website and could not find anything that stated 135 HIE was being discontinued. The only info on HIE is that sheet film is gone but 135 will continue. If anyone has the link to where the 135 is being discontinued please let me know.

Hi Jim,

It was in a thread posted about in November. Maybe someone has the link. It was a very reliable source. Whatever is available is what is left from last year's production run. After that there is no more so I would get as much as you can although it will only last a year anyways. Some people have no trouble freezing it but other people have mentioned that it doesn't keep very well.
I just received another 10 rolls today from Aden's and last week I received 13 rolls from Henrys so I'm good to go!!! Thanks Art!!!!
