Kodak discontinue several films

Kodak have just ditched several films with no advance warning and no replacements:

Portra 100UC and Portra 400UC have been discontinued in medium format, but are still available in 35mm. I never liked 100UC, but I really dug 400UC 120 in a Holga.

Ektachrome 160T (EPT) and Ektachrome 320T (EPJ) have been discontinued completely.

Awesome.

  1. Aren’t they more or less constantly reshuffling their deck of available emulsions? Especially with color. Maybe they figured with the new Portras that were introduced recently they no longer needed the UC emulsions in 120? The new Portras are way nice.

  2. They are, but they normally give advance notice. I just got my first roll of the new Portra back, and it is really nice (though it’s 400NC, not VC, so I can’t really compare).

    400UC is a pretty unique film, though.
