- abhayhegde 3y agoSure, they are in business, but I think it's mostly printing and films. From what I understand they sold the camera licenses and patents. I have watched one part of Smarter Every Day's videos on Kodak. Thanks for linking!
- varjag 3y agoKodak was always primarily film company, their camera business was an afterthought and fourth tier.

You always had someone willing to help open a door if you demonstrated that you were willing to commit to growing your skills and become an asset that was valuable for the company.”
- wrp 3y agoRegarding just color slide film, I think Kodak had stopped all production then resumed with just Ektachrome in 2018.
- ImPleadThe5th 3y agoI was reading an article that they were scaling down all of their color film production, and then the mini-renisance happened right during/after Covid and they have been having a hard time scaling back up ever since.
