Hi Jordan

My distant observation over that last 40 - 50 years is
that everything Kodak does that isn't DIRECTLY film related
ends in failure. Also, they don't seem to make cameras like
they used to.

To me the throw away cameras they sell today do not
qualify as cameras. It is a marketing trick. It is just
a novel packaging of film, directly film related.

OK, I've now shot my unimportant wad.
