In the meantime, what have you done with all the 100 ASA 35mm still camera negative films, John Pytlak?
In the last month, they seem to have been dropped from drugstores, Wal-Marts, Targets, CAMERA STORES (like Ritz), leaving not an outdated box behind! on the fly, if you're looking for film, 200 ASA is apparently the slowest to be had normally stocked now in MS, AL, GA, & LA.
I would hope that in the barbaric outer lands of snowy wastes, 100 ASA is still available around ski & touristy areas.

I am working on the MOTION-PICTURE films. Kodak still offers a variety of color negative still films, but dealers may not carry all of them, especially the "discount" type stores:

Another long link

Yet another long link
quote: No matter what you're capturing, Kodak has the right film for every occasion, from the MAX Versatility line for all-around picture taking to High Definition for enhanced clarity.
Have you ever tried spooling up some EASTMAN EXR 50D Color Negative Film 5245 for those sunny day shots?:
And one more for the heck of it
quote: When your assignment requires the utmost in image structure, there's only one choice - EASTMAN EXR 50D Film. With ultra fine grain and ultra sharp resolution, it allows you to capture rich, natural colors and helps you pull out every last detail from any daylight scene.
EASTMAN EXR 50D Films 5245 (35 mm) and 7245 (16 mm) are low-speed daylight-balanced color negative camera films with microfine grain, very high sharpness, and high resolving power. They feature wide exposure latitude and accurate tone reproduction. The emulsion contains a colored-coupler mask for good color reproduction in release prints.
Because of the carbon rem-jet backing, you must process it in the motion-picture ECN-2 process, and NOT in the C-41 process. [ 03-02-2005, 12:33 AM: Message edited by: Adam Martin ]

Don't try to hide behind the dense, web-like Kodak corporate structure! It has been apparent for some time that you are controlling the entire organization, down to its minutest function. It's not even amusing among us here any more to winkingly pretend otherwise to keep the gag going in case tourists stop by. The secret identity bit has worn out & isn't fooling anyone. It was silly, anyway.

Really, I rarely shoot anything where there's light, so I don't order 100 ASA film & just piick some up when I need it. In the last month or so, 100 ASA Kodak has vanished from the shelves everywhere, & only 200 is available.
I tend to just order 800 & pick up some 1600 Fuji for insurance.
quote: ULTRA COLOR 400 Film
UC400 has begun to show up in lots of places, but I don't really use it. I've got a bunch of un-shot rolls now! I'm either shooting in a light-scarce hole, or somebody asks me to take a picture of something outside & I'll do better with 100 ASA. 200? Is this for people who can't decide between 100 & 400 or what? Maybe studio or wedding photography, bRRRRRRr...

That would be fun, & would be a flashback to the 50 & 64 ASA days, but my needs for slow film are pretty much extemperaneous, & I need something I can grab quick off a retailer's shelf rather than something I've ordered & have rotting in a box or picking up smells in the fridge. I'll order some anyway, thanks for the suggestion!
Make that Perfect Touch print process available in prints larger than 5x7, photochemical Dr. Mabuse!
Put out a hit on that guy at Target who lost my Mardi Gras concert photos instead of sending them to the Kodak lab! Are you serious about ensuring customer satisfaction, or what?
