Special lenses for special work
I'm sorry someone had trouble with the lenses. Close-up lenses serve a VERY SPECIFIC use that most picture takers neither need nor know how to use. For more information, Kodak puts out publications that can show how to use them. For a photographer who wants to do special work they can do wonders (although more choices of powers would have been nice). However, if you want photos--not pictures, a tripod or other fixed hold, together with EXTREMELY careful focus is necessary for good results. I have been a photographer for 40+ yrs. and glory in the result the 4800 can give me with close-ups and a TOP graphics program. I was in the West for 5 weeks this fall and took over 800 shots on Indian reservations and national parks. I expect 100+ including close-ups to be good, and will be busy until summer working on them (With my Nikon and lab 20 yrs ago I'd be lucky to finish 20). This is when close-up lenses are ESSENTIAL for individual or combination work. If you want quick easy pictures than DON'T BUY THEM. Study first and then decide.

Close up does require knowledge
These lenses do what similiar ones do for any camera. Kodak has books out that explain fully how and why to use them. With them you have a chance to do truly beautifully artistic work. However, very close and accurate focusing is VITAL to a clear picture, which require a tripod or other device to steady the camera. If you want to take only "distant" pictures (scenery and people) you probably have no need for them. BUT, remember the computer programs for editing allows your imagination full reign to use or combine pictures as I know from 40 years of slow, painful darkroom work. For more information see my note at the LITHIUM BATTERY SCREEN.

Maybe I just don't know what I'm doing, but...
...I have yet to take a non-blurry closeup with these lenses. My closeups were better without this lens. Now, I do have an "older" digital camera - a Kodak DC210, but the Kodak web site says these lenses will work with this camera. I'm thinking maybe I'm just too much of a novice, and I'm obviously doing something wrong, but the instruction booklet certainly isn't any help. It's one of those "general" instruction booklets that cover multiple products. So, I would say that unless you're really up on use of lenses on digital cameras, pass these up. ... Read more

Good Film
This film has great color reproduction and performance. I would give this film 5 stars except for the fact that Fujifilm Superia X-TRA 400 provides similar performance for a cheaper price.

Amazing Film! Use it for anything!
I am not a professional photographer. I just happen to be a grandson of one. I use a fully manual Canon TX SLR for my work. So far I've shot 5 rolls of this stuff. Every time there has been something wrong with the camera/me/lighting. Every time I got a usable, and sometimes, great print. This film has a huge exposure latitute (you can really screw up and still get an image) When I show these prints to others, they look at me funny and say, "This is ISO 400?" It has REALLY fine grain. And because it's ISO 400, you can use it for almost anything (I got usable prints after shooting a soccer game: My camera was set at ISO 100 and there were light leaks in the camera door). It's a great film, although I'm told the Royal Gold it replaces is still better. Pick up a pack of this and see what you get. You'll be amazed.

best ISO-400 film I've used yet
I have not been a huge fan of 400-speed film in the past. It could be that I'm not a professional photographer and therefore have not been using it properly (I have been using it primarily in shade and somewhat low-light situations, both in my point-and-shoot and SLR), but no matter how I've tried to use it, I've always found it to be grainier than I would have liked it to be, regardless of the brand I selected. I decided to try this film on a whim, as I knew I would be taking some pictures in a situation where the Kodak 200 Gold just wasn't going to cut it (fairly subdued light action shots, no flash allowed), and lo and behold, this film did the trick. Granted, I was using a fast 50mm lens with the f-stop generally set between 1.4 and 2.0, so I had speed on my side, but what really impressed me was that this film showed virtually no grain. I really had to look for it in some poorly exposed images. Also, the colors were very true to the setting.

The most recent role of this film I shot in the Rushmore Cave in South Dakota. As you might imagine, it was pretty dark in there, with ambient light coming from strategically placed lightbulbs here and there. I loaded this film by accident, instead intending to load a roll of 800 I had (I will review the Fuji 800 (NPZ, I believe) I used at another time - the best 800 I've ever used). However, after I discovered I loaded the wrong film I decided to give it a try, especially considering that the mid-roll rewind on my camera had failed me a few hours prior. So I went into the cave with this film loaded and the same Canon 50mm 1.4 lens I mentioned before hoping to be lucky and get something out of the pictures. It ended up being a most auspicious mistake, and those pictures are amongst my favorite of the whole trip. I took a few pictures using a flash, but I wanted to try to make the most of the ambient light. I was amazed to get back these crisp, clear photos with colors so warm and vibrant, and again, very true to life. To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure if the photo lab pushed the film or not. I did not ask them to. So if you try this film in a very dim/dark situation, you may want to experiment and ask your lab to push a role or two, and process a role or two as they normally would. Somewhere you will find a result which is most pleasing.

I have yet to try this film with a point-and-shoot, but I expect it would produce excellent results, as well. Finally, for those of you who like to shoot 200-speed film, Kodak's new High Definition 200 is excellent, as well. I am now using it as my general purpose film, and even favor it over Kodak's 100 Gold. When Amazon starts carrying it, I will be reviewing it, too.

Vivid Colors
I'm amazed at how my pictures turned out with the use of this film. The colors are so vivid and vibrant. The images come out sharp. Definitely the film I'll be using from now on!

Bit Pricey-But well worth it!
I've used all types of film thoughout my photography days and by far Kodaks treated me the best. If your out to capture rich, vibrant colors this is the film for you. So far I've shot 4 rolls of it and I'm amazed at how much the colors stand out. Its definatly the film I'll be using. ... Read more

Product Description

Opteka lenses allow you to shoot with total confidence. Opteka lenses stand up to the most rigorous demands on the stage and on location. Opteka's hard anti-reflective (AR) coating offers protection specially formulated to resist flaking, peeling and scratching. This proprietary AR coating also reduces light loss and flare to less than 1% per surface, compared to untreated glass which has a light loss of 4% per surface. Because all Opteka lenses are designed and manufactured with the highest possible degree of consistency, you can swap lenses mid-shoot with no discernable variation in color or effect. The unprecedented purity, color saturation and repeatability of Opteka lenses virtually eliminate the need for lab color timing corrections caused by other filters. This puts more creative control where it belongs, in your hands. ... Read more

Great batteries but amazon sent the wrong ones
I have owned these batteries for about a year and a half now.They are the best ones I've ever owned, they hold a charge well and last a long time in my digital camera.I recently ordered a second set to take on vacation.Amazon sent me the wrong batteries (they sent the kodak green rechargeables that got not-so-great reviews).So they sent me a replacement pack, these too were the wrong batteries.So just beware that if you are ordering these batteries from amazon, they are probably not the ones you will receive.I know that Best Buy carries these.Definetly worth every penny!

AA
I bought these batteries almost a couple of years ago for a heck of a lot more (4x), but they were still worth every penny. I have used them in my digital camera all the time and they havn't faded at all. Sometimes I use them in my gameboy and they seem to actually last longer than new non-recharge batteries. Anyway I love them. ... Read more

Good value for the price
We used the film with a cheap camera on our last trip and I truely didn't have my expections too high but all pictures came out nicely. Pictures we took in the evening did not come out as clear (greyish), possibly due to the quality of the camera. All in all - Strongly recommend.

Great versitility at an exceptional value
Kodak makes great film, and Gold Max is one of their best amature films. This film provides maximum versitility for outdoor sports, and for the decently lighted indoor shots. Grain structure is good, holding well up to an 8"x10" print. Best part about this film is the price...I think Kodak and Amazon.com have a real winner here. ... Read more

Makes nice print...
just like the other Kodak papers... very simple to cut with photo cutter...

Avoid this paper
Paper is longer the 6in. Pain to cut. Quality is poor on a Canon 860i. Tried printing with Canon and Kodak software. Both very dull printouts. The Canon Photo Paper Pro prints 100x better.

not what you think it is
This stinks because I was sent this ad for this paper along with the information about my newly puchased easy share printer dock. Naturally I thought this paper was for that item. It isn't. Sooo, if you just bought a printer dock, don't buy this. As a matter of fact, you might find you cannot locate the paper you need here at all.

Beware! Not truly 4X6
I don't know how Kodak makes this without clearly labelling their package 4 X 6.375 !! Because that's what the paper is! It is a bit longer than 6 inches! But 1) it doesn't say that anywhere on the package, 2) there is no perforation meaning you need to somehow cut this (a big hassle!). So if your printer needs the extra area, this may work for you. But with the new generation of borderless printers, this is a very misleading product. ... Read more

Mixed performances on this paper, so past on it.
I got to agree with the others on Kodak Picture Paper quality for Canon printer, it is bad. I have a lot of printers: 2 Epson, HP, and Canon. My old Epson 1200 did a good job with this paper so I bought a lot (still one package unopened). I ditched that printer and used an Epson's 820 and the results were mixed. For presentation purpose of just color and text it looks fine. For photo picture you notice it isn't that good. My HP 6110 did a good job with it. My newest printer Canon's i960 did a burry job. The printout images on presentation and photo were fuzzy with too much ink. Maybe I have to put the setting to draft with less ink or something.

I think Epson matte paper is the best paper for quality/price for presentation. For photo printouts any top line glossy paper or e-gloss matte paper is fine. This paper is getting cheaper though.

Optimized for HP printers
Kodak paper is primarily for HP printers. I have used this paper on a variety of printers including HP, Lexmark, Canon and Epson and the quality is substandard on all printers except the HP. Also tried on various models of each printer manufacturer with the same result.

Some printer companies design their printers, ink and paper to work together. When this continuity is compromised, the output quality is often substandard.

In short, HP=ok. Other=**danger**

Very bad results with Epson 820
Don't expect to get good picture quality with this paper if you have an Epson Photo 820 printer. I tried differents settings, including those suggested by Kodak, and always got very bad results.

The paper [bad]
Using CANON S750, the outcome is terrible. It is dark and blur. Canon's Photo Paper Pro, or Kadak's Premium Photo Paper did produce high-quality pictures, almost no different from the photo developed in a lab.

Best Combo of Price and Quality
Kodak Picture Paper has a nice soft gloss on both sides and I have had very good results with it. After shopping around, I found it to have the best combination of price and quality. It's quite heavy and very bright and is perfect for printing photos from digital cameras. It makes photos from even medicore printers look two times better than when printed on premium matte inkjet paper. ... Read more

Help Me Stay Organized
I have purchased three kodak camera's in the last two years because of the little black organizer to store my prints and cassettes in. I like to be organized, so now I will have to hunt a new camera and a new way to keep everything where I can find it. Please make your organizer.

Kodak Advantix Organizer
I love the holder itself, however there is no place on the outside of the case to write a description or date of what is contained so I am always reopening and searching to find what is enclosed or what I am looking for.

You really must have a few of these...
As the other reviewers have pointed out, this is an absolute "must have" if you use an Advantix camera. Although this is a very simple item - just a plastic case, really - there is no better way to store and organize your film & index prints.

I wanted to add that the Advantix Organizer is not as readily available in stores as the film itself, so it's a good idea to buy a couple of these even if you don't have enough exposed film to fill them right away. If you're like me, they'll be filled soon enough! [Each organizer stores 12 film cassettes & index prints]

I wish there was something this nice to organize regular 35mm negatives...

Essential for Advantix cassette storage
Have you ever needed a reprint of a photo only to find yourself digging through boxes, closets, envelopes, etc. looking for the roll of film? Chances are, if you found the roll, the index print was no where to be seen. Sound familiar?

This product is the most simple solution for film cassette and index print storage! The case is similar to a videotape clamshell and holds twelve film cassettes, as well as their index prints. Locating a specific photo is very easy with these organizers! I am an avid scrapbooker and these have been essential tools for storing my film. They are also a great way to protect your film and index prints from dust, sunlight, and moisture. ... Read more

KODAK PROFESSIONAL PORTRA 400VC, 400NC, 160VC, 160NC Films are the original four... Introduced in 1998, these four films shared breakthrough Single Channel Printing technology, employing the same dyes and couplers. The result:° same spectral sensitivity and spectral-dye density across film speeds° remarkably compatible final prints, no matter what combination of PORTRA Films shot: 120/220 and 35 mm formats, natural color and vivid color, 160 and 400 speeds.The NC designation (Natural Color) lives up to its name. Colors are accurate, delivering clean whites and pure reds. Flesh tones are excellent and a comparatively low contrast position helps to smooth out skin blemishes and hold detail in both very light and very dark fabrics. This film is generally recommended for controlled lighting situations, but the softer contrast can also provide you with a critical advantage if you are faced with an overly harsh lighting situation that you need to shoot with available light. These features, along with the fact that the negatives from PORTRA 160NC Film enlarge well, makes it a perfect choice for both portraits and weddings. ... Read more

B&W With the Convenience of 1 Hour Processing!
Kodak's Black & White + is what is known as a chromogenic black and white film. What this means, when compared to traditional (panchromatic) B&W films is that it can be developed in C-41 (color processing). Given that traditional black and white processing has grown quite expensive and that many photo labs no longer possess the capability to process regular B&W, this film provides exceptional convenience.

I think the other reviewers of this film here have probably lacked experience with this film and its competitors from ILFORD of the UK and Konica of Japan. Yes, there are color shift issues with this film. Much of that depends on the quality of the C-41 processing and the willingness of the technician to spend time with some exposure compensation.

Most color shifts with this film result from the use of color paper. If photos taken with this film are developed using regular B&W paper, then the user will receive true black and white prints. Using color paper often times will result in a slight color shift toward sepia or blue/gray. However, I find the shift toward sepia pleasing to the eye because it lends the picture the air of an old time B&W print that has faded with age. Sepia provides a classical look to monochromatic prints.

Because this film and its competitors use dyes rather than silver halide crystals, it is capable of being developed by normal 1-hour labs using C-41 processing. This is incredibly convenient and much less expensive than using traditional black and white film and then having to wait for its return if your lab lacks the facilities to do traditional black and white printing.

This is a very fine grained film for its speed. It is also a medium to medium-high contrast film. It delivers very sharp imagery and has served as a very nice platform to re-introduce casual photographers to the elegance and drama of black and white photography.

Yes, traditional black and white is still alive and well. But for less cost and a lot more timeliness, this film offers very sharp imagery to folks who would not normally consider black and white film.

Kodak markets Black and White+ as a consumer grade film. The Professional emulsion of this film is called T400CN and offers the same convenience and cost benefits. Kodak also offers a chromogenic B&W in professional grade among its PORTRA family of films. That film is known as PORTRA 400 and is often used for wedding and portrait work when people choose black and white prints.

Don't underestimate this film. It offers a lot of advantages and the flexibility to shift tonal variations based on the use of color OR black and white paper.

For those considering this film, be aware that all chromogenic films, such as the ones discussed here, as well as the ILFORD and KONICA offerings are ONLY SOLD AS ISO 400 speed films. Despite that medium/fast speed, all are very fine grained films and will provide incredibly sharp images.

I recommend this film and its professional family members.

B&W for the effort challenged (i.e. 'lazy')
I recently bought a three pack of this stuff (just for grins) and was pretty impressed by the results (despite my bungling - read on).

I had a roll of the stuff loaded and rewound mid-roll as I wanted to shoot some color film (rated at ISO 100). When I loaded the Kodak B&W back in later, I forgot to reset the ISO back to 400. It wasn't until after I finished the roll that I realized my goof (and a good one at that as I had to deliberately override the DX coding in order to do it). Thinking that I everything was hosed - I just had the lab give me negatives (no proof sheet).

I scanned a couple of the images in via a 35mm film scanner and the results were quite usable. This stuff has exposure latitude up the wazoo. I would recommend this stuff to the casual photographer who wants B&W snapshot - but the latitude makes it useless for the serious amateur thinking this to be an alternative to real B&W.

Great Film
This film seems a lot better than Kodak Max 400 even though it is basically the same thing (except for the fact that it's black and white). I wouldn't recommend this for proffesionals, but it's great for the average person.

All right
I took my first pictures ever using this film and it came out looking all right. I suppose it wasn't crystal clear, but that was probably my fault. I also think it has problems with low light. Is that my fault? Probably. Who knows, it was nice to get it developed at Target, though.
