Merc, I had the same feelings when I saw that on TV.
It seems professional photographers had a very high regard
for the technical side of that film.
About 2 years ago we had an old roll of it developed
(sent somewhere by our local camera shop),
and the shots came out fine even thou the roll had been sitting
in a closet for several years.
I guess that behind the scenes Kodac has been hit hard by the digital revolution.
But this is one corporation that truely did remarkable research,
not only in snapshot films but in filters and light properties of all sorts.
I'm still surprised though because, although I've been retired for 10+ years,
I didn't think the resolution of digital camera images were yet good enough
to meet other professional needs (e.g., ophthalmology)
