Kodak & Our Films!
If you didn’t notice till now, this is BIG NEWS. Kodak seems to be facing issues and there is a possibility of loosing one of the biggest companies in the photographic world to bankruptcy. Its all over the internet and its scaring me now. So if you had a dream camera you always wanted to shoot with or a dream film, it would probably be a good idea to go shoot with it now!
Not really much to say in this post, I’m sad 
Just when I was falling in love with Tmax.
Kodak Tmax 100 / Hasselblad 500c / Jaipur Dec 2011
I bought a F100 last week and I usually shoot Ilford/fuji film because I know I can rely in those companies. Besides, there’re so many pros shooting film, I can’t imagine T-Max or Ektachrome disappear.

Sebastian, ilford is no more available in India and the last I came to know was that they are no more making BW films. So that leaves us with Kodak & Fuji ONLY!
Kodak is really close to my heart… Kodak 400 has been my favorite and most used film!
Sad news indeed. I feel a sense of urgency too to start hoarding films Kodak and others.
Chapter 11 bankruptcy: re-organization of the company.
Chapter 07 bankruptcy: liquidation.
Kodak has filed for chapter 11…so as long as a chapter 7 scenario doesn’t come up, I think we’re good! Read it here:

Thanks Pranav. We do need men like you to bring in hope in this time. Buy film, keep film alive! ( Just ordering 20 rolls of Ilford 135mm
