Revival of Kodak's IR-Ektachrome


Revival of Kodak's IR-Ektachrome
The Issue
With film sales continuing to rise, film manufactures reviving older films which were previously discontinued, and the announcement of Kodak's re-release of Ektachrome for 2017, photographers worldwide are taking an interest into more analog processes for their image making. Since Kodak's famous infrared color film IR-Ektachrome (an alternative stock: Aerochrome III) was discontinued in the 2000's, the use of infrared (IR) photography has had to be limited to using digital equipment, or only black and white IR film. The infrared Ektachrome produces an image unparalleled to any current IR film or digital equipment.
This is a petition of have Kodak consider the possibilities of producing their IR-Ektachrome alongside the standard Ektachrome once released later in the year of 2017.
