"NEW" Elite Chrome 100?
I just bought some Elite Chrome 100 (fresh, at a big dealer) and it was
marked "NEW" and "Finest Grained Consumer Color Slide Film" or words to that effect. The Kodak online data sheet is unchanged since January. Has Elite Chrome 100 been re-engineered to be like E100G instead of E100S? Any news? I've e-mailed Kodak...

Reposting to some other newsgroups since rec.photo.film+labs is either dead,
or not on this news server right now. "Michael A. Covington" wrote in message ...

Got my answer from Kodak. The "NEW" Elite Chrome 100 (with "NEW" in red on
the box) is indeed like E100G rather than E100S. That means it is super-fine-grained.

Any news? I've e-mailed Kodak... That is my understanding. I've shot about 10 rolls of the New Elite Chrome 100 and I like it very much. It is currently my second favorite slide film right behind Fuji's new version Astia 100F. John

I've shot about 10 rolls of the New Elite Chrome 100 and I like it very much. It is currently my second favorite slide film right behind Fuji's new version Astia 100F. Kodak confirmed it, and I shot my first roll last night (of a spectacular aurora borealis in Georgia, where we rarely see the aurora). They also say E200 is going to get re-engineered in a similar way to make it finer-grained. That is exciting news for me because E200 is *the* film for astronomy (high speed, low reciprocity failure, and strong response to the deep red end of the spectrum, where the nebulae are). Meanwhile I'm using pushed E100G or "new" Elite Chrome 100, which, with a 1-stop push, is still finer-grained than unpushed E200. -- Clear skies, Michael Covington -- www.covingtoninnovations.com Author, Astrophotography for the Amateur and (new) How to Use a Computerized Telescope
