The question begs: how many collectors will be snapping up “Panda” versions of their favourite 35mm Kodak film stocks to sell on at a nice profit in years to come? Please don’t scoff, if you’re reading this, you know it’s just a matter of time before they start appearing on eBay. Simply purchase a roll of 35mm film and load it in, take your photos, rewind and have the film roll developed.
#KODAK GOLD 35MM MANUAL#
Just like it's range of disposable cameras, M35 has fixed focus lens, manual film winding and rewinding and a switch to turn flash On/Off. Prices currently sit closer to +30% year-on-year as of June 28, 2021at $26.24 per ounce. Capture the memories with this reusable film camera that uses 35mm film. On the bright side for now, at least, 2020’s silver price increases, which we at one point over 50% up year-on-year versus 2019 have not yet been passed on by any film brands in 2021. The packaging update, while unexpected in the nature of its specificity, is not surprising considering the knock-on impact of ongoing and persistent supply chain disruptions due to COVID-19 and other (unrelated) mishaps such as the blocking of the Suez Canal for 6 days in late March 2021. The temporary replacement passed all the internal testing requirements (photo activity / light integrity).

I don’t develop my own film at this point so all I can do here is send you in the direction of other people’s information.
#KODAK GOLD 35MM CODE#
It has the DX code 512504 and is developed using the regular C-41 process. We will be using the non-painted end caps until we are able to procure our standard TFS product. Kodak Gold 200 is a 5500k daylight balanced, ISO 200, colour negative 35mm film that’s available in rolls of 24 or 36 exposures. It will not be painted to match our standard look and feel, but will not affect the product or results. In the interim, we have an alternative material source (tin plate steel). Due to shortages worldwide, our supplier will not be able to provide TFS to our manufacturer until later in Q3 2021. We currently use tin-free steel (TFS) for all 135 magazine end caps. What could have been!Ībout the change, I recently spoke to a representative of the brand, who told me:

Announcement: Kodak supply chain issues require a temporary change to all 35mm canisters effective immediately - EMULSIVE Close Search for:Īs a number of readers (and EMULSIVE contributors) have pointed out, the temporary canisters look fantastic and there have been more than a few suggestions that Kodak might have embraced the change by making this a marketing event around a limited edition “retro/vintage”.
