I thought Kodak sold off all their film assets in their bankruptcy and have been reconstructed as producer of commercial printing equipment.

Vision 3 is awesome.  But red has been old news.  Sony f65.  Arri and even that little aussie company s black magic cam are are the real work horses these days.  Red is just good at promoting.   We shot hunger games on vision 3 stock. And not in stereo which was even better.  Its easier to shoot a big movie on film because its less of the total budget andyou can usually afford more lights to properly light dark scenes.   Im glad jjs dp is doing this.

I liked the quote:

"film still carries a symbolic weight, that of sophistication and craft."
