Reliable K40 in the US?

[plattino]

I need to get some K40 to shoot some additional scene material for my current film project in the good ol' US of A. Has anyone figured out where to get the newer so called "fixed" batches of K40 super 8 film? I know we know the batch numbers but where can you get this new stuff in the USA? Do I have to go overseas?

I placed an order at Kodak's online store last thurs and they were "back-ordred" till May....Wonder if that means that's when they get the "fixed" batch? Also, B&H Photo (one of the biggest) is "out of stock" on K-40. Was there a wholesaler-level recall? Anyone know anything?

Trying to get a lot number from any source other than a walk-in is next to impossible.

I think I might change my name or something...I asked a similar question a week ago and so far have received zero response...

Chas the trick is to reply to your own topic to add it to the top of the thread. Then if no one replys, just keep sendin her up.
