Kodak goes bankrupt amid digital world of film

Eastman Kodak, the US-based company which brought photography to the masses over a century ago, has filed for bankruptcy protection after years of failing to become a profitable seller of modern consumer products.
The 130-year-old photographic film pioneer said it had also obtained a $950m loan from Citigroup, the US financial firm, to help keep it going.

This just in!! The Kodak Film company has filed for bankruptcy......More details to come as the story develops

Kodak will be smaller ...but stronger - digital capture is not a strong business and cash generator... therefore the business model will change.... the past can't be changed but I am convinced that Kodak will recover. Thanks,

They should look at fujifilm for inspiration.

wow..so sad...as an indian, growing up, all our pictures were taken with kodak camera and film reel..every camera/photography store where they wash the film reel, there would be a ton of kodak posters and ads around...it used to be a hosuehold name in india..but now, in the digital age, everyone uses a digital Camera....makes me miss the old times..i used to be one of the only teenagers with their own camera growing up..my friends would envy me.lol
