Roland is absolutely right. Two years ago, I had a problem with some Kodak
paper. I called Kodak in Rochester to complain and they asked me where I
purchased the paper, I said that I might have bought it from B&H. AT that
point, the Kodak technician told me that B&H is NOT an authorized Kodak dealer
and that they (B&H) purchase all of their Kodak items on the grey market.

For more information, you can call Kodak directly at 800-242-2424.
