    Back to the topic, Kodak shares are up like 2,000% in the last 3 days, including another 300% today. Bananas.

    2,000%. Keep in mind a 10% return in a year is a decent year.

    Aren't they still down from their high level from years ago? Have not they been decreasing for a number of years? LOL

      They're a shell of their former selves, but they never fully went away, and prior to this huge jump, they had incremental quarterly increases for the past year. Lot of people are getting back into film.

      Please love yourself.

        I remember after they were starting to get their lunch eaten by digital one of their strategy folks talked about how they’d make up for it because Asia was behind the curve in take up of photography so they would grow there.

        As if there was some iron law of nature that the Chinese needed to use film for a few decades before they could switch to digital.

        Only non-witches get due process.

          Hmmm, maybe my Vintage Nikon F2 and FE are worth more than they were a couple of years ago?

            Generally speaking, the lenses are where the money's at, not necessarily the bodies.

              Nikon is the only film SLR remaining. $2,500.00

              https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/352116-USA/Nikon_1799_F6_35mm_SLR_Autofocus.html

              Leica has a couple of rangfinders. $5,200.00

              https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1082912-REG/leica_10370_m_a_rangefinder_camera_body.html

              and $5,300.00

              https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/277979-USA/Leica_10301_MP_72_35mm_Rangefinder.html

              I think a pro level, Vintage F2 will sell for a lot more than it was selling for, if not already, soon. 😁

              A working, near mint, one owner, FE with motordrive, original 50mm f1.8 lens, will probably enjoy a similar increase in value.

                Check out keh.com for used prices. They have a Nikon F2 body in excellent condition going for $123.76.

                Yours might be in a different situation, I dunno, but generally speaking, lenses hold their value, and bodies don't.

                Please love yourself.

                  Yup still down. Just remarkable they’ve gone up 20x in a matter of 3 days. I’d be curious if anyone bought a large number of shares last week or over the weekend.

                    Actually, they are up compared to every point available since 2013 except for a temporary spike in early 2014 that’s slightly higher than their current stock price.

                        The CEO. LOL Just read something that he bought something like 50000 shares a week or two ago. He spent USD$100,000 and it is now much much higher.

                        (But the article said that he has been buying shares consist over time, so this was not really unusual and they do not think anything was weird about it).
