I've made the switch to digital but still have all of my film gear available. I might take a look.
Please comment briefly on whether or not you have exposed a roll of film in the last six months...and whether or not you might plan to in the coming months!

I teach B&W photography at a Junior College here and also have adult classes. I believe strongly in film photography and have donated an 8 station darkroom to the King's Christian academy here. That is where we hold the classes. The two new Kodak B&W films are excellent!! So is Rollei infra red.
I own Six film cameras and two digital cameras (one is the Sony Mavica CD 300 ). This is one of the first digital cameras available and is still meeting my parameters.When I want to take Quality enlargement type photographs ,the film cameras are in my shoot bag. I am always looking for new and improved film for this work. I am waiting for delivery & looking forward to using the new Kodak color film. My darkroom is still busy with B & W processing.
As a curiosity only, not as a replacement for digital. I haven't shot film in over 3 years but do want to try the "Great Yellow Father's" new Extar 100. Problem is, NO ONE in this town has it for sale! Even though I still have all my film cameras, I personally am so hooked on digital that I just recently purchased another Nikon D.
I think Kodak is pulling out all the stops in an attempt to survive. Kodak knows its days are numbered and and is doing everything possible to compete with the digital giant that may drive them into bankruptcy. If I did use this new film I'd probably want to scan the negatives so that I could work with the images in my computer.
Yes. I continue to expose film. Both in 35mm and Medium Format (220)-645- I would love to see this film in 120/220 rolls and would be ecstatic if they brought back a revised Ektar 25. I would love to get a dslr but other than medium format, which is out of my reach, I am unable to find any bodies sporting iso and shutter speed dials. I also like aperture rings on my lenses. I hate, just hate, going through spinning wheels(Canon) to bracket or change shutter speeds or to bracket.These functions are vastly quicker on a typical film slr Colin Elliott
I have a Noblex panoramic camera and that uses film. But that's the only film I've used in the last six months. I'm going to keep my Hasselblad because twice a year I have to shoot some photos for a billboard and they need film negatives. Next time I go to Alaska I'm going to bring a film camera because digital did not capture the beauty of Alaska.
