Re: HIE in 120/220



In a message dated 00-03-03 19:03:31 EST, you write:

<< They lose money with the current line, and would have to incur
 the costs of retooling to make available a film that would have even less of
 a consumer base than HIE.  It just wouldn't make any sense to do so. >>

This is probably all true, but Konica seems to feel it worthwhile to make-up 
a batch of its type of IR each Spring and, presumably, Konica is not an 
altruistic organization.  This would give Kodak a chance to go head-to-head 
with Konica for that market, adding the fillup of halation (or, perhaps, 
"partial" halation).  That would be capitalism in all its glory.
