Mark,

HSI was discontinued in November 1999. There was much discussion on the
list about HSI and pinhole problems - you may want to read the archives or
check out the Infrared FAQ which gives an overview
(http://www.cocam.co.uk).

Kodak responded in writing to an inquiry I made on Nov.19th 1999 saying
that the film had been discontinued due to the closure of a manufacturing
facility and low worldwide demand.

The best way to locate a source of HSI is to contact Kodak directly - all
that remains is old stock, when that is gone there will be no more.


All the best,
