When film is no longer available.

I'm one of the few who prefers Kodak slide film. That way there will be plenty for me in the next few years.

Huh? You do realize that Kodak has canceled ALL still transparency films?

Yes, but since nobody else is using it, there will be plenty left for me.

Good luck with that plan.

I stopped by Helix, which I believe has the largest film supply in Chicago. They had no Kodak transparency film of any form.

I ran into a similar stiuation with Plus-X. I thought I knew the last source of it (or at least ONE of hte last sources) -- a local shop that had loads of it. The next week it was all gone. Rumor has it that it will appear on ebay at hugely marked up prices.

Ah. Well I am so we can both get some. I'm mostly buying up E100G in 35mm.

That will work well as I prefer the Elite Chrome. That stuff is sooo good on the big screen.

Humm, haven't tried that but it is a bit cheaper. I need to try it. I loved Astia and went to E100G once I could no longer get that. I like E100VS slightly better than Velvia when I want over the top saturation (not that often) but not enough to have a huge preference. They're both too contrasty and too saturated for me most of the time.
