I’ve just heard back from CineStill and Analog Amsterdam, whom I asked to comment on Eastman Kodak’s stricter rules regarding the sales of motion picture reels for bulk loading into still cameras.
CineStill respectfully declined to comment on decisions made by other manufacturers. The company has not announced price increases or difficulties acquiring films from Kodak, which I think can be interpreted as good news for all the 800T, 400D, 50D, and BwXX fans.
(Better yet, the prices on CineStill 50D film have recently decreased across various retailers; see: analog.cafe/app/film-price…)
Analog Amsterdam also replied with a positive update: “We’re currently still able to receive new shipments of film. For the time being, nothing changes.” They also promised to post any updates about changes to supplies or pricing on their website (analogamsterdam.com) and Instagram (@analogamsterdamstore).

In other (related) news, I’ve just sold my last pack of Cinema Shorts (hand-spooled Kodak Vision 3 film; see analog.cafe/r/new-film-cin…). Let me know if you’d like me to try* to make some more!
* — given everything discussed above, this may take a bit more time/effort than before.
