Do you mean that Agfa will cease producing films ?.. They stopped APX 25
and Ortho 25 (Ultra50 is now nore or less replaced) and sheet films, but
 I never heard that they stopped other productions (their consumer
imaging part will be a separate society with name Agfaphoto and the same
red rhombus logo...). Kodak is not following Agfa, but preceding...

Kodak suggests switching to portra, but it is either 160 or 400. I suggest
trying fuji.

At Photokina, Kodak implied that Royal Supra was to be replaced by,
or renamed as, Elite Color (not to be confused with Elite Chrome).

My condolences, it's always unnerving when a photographer's
favorite film disappears or gets revised, sometimes for the worse.

Hi Group,
Just received the following reply from Kodak, note the lack of sympathy,
also note in the attachment there is no mention of Supra 200.
What planet do these people live on?

"Dear Sir,
Please see attached link for replacement film.

Question:  Hi there,
I am a web and graphics person, this entails a
large amount of photography, all (negatives) of
which I scan for use in my projects. I am
looking for high res with low grain images.
I have been using Supra since it came out and
have been delighted with it as with the later
Royal Supra. Using 200,400 & sometimes 800.
As a scanning medium it is without doubt the
best available.
However I am now informed by my film supplier
that this is now being discontinued.
Is this some form of photographic suicide?
To discontinue a sucessful produt without a
suitable replacement surely rates as profesional
suicide, if you lose your customer base at times
of a shrinking market to a rival company you
might never get them back.
Have you considered the effects on small
busineses like mine, I very much doubt it.
So much for customer loyalty.
At this time I will have to reconsider my
options, and I have to say that if I have to
purchase film from another company I will have
to consider also purchsing their matching papers.

Finally I must ask you to earnestly reconsider
this rash decision."
