Kodak Tri-X in a Disposable Camera

[cgw]

Late to the party again for Kodak Alaris? I mean, like when did Ilford start putting XP2 Super into its disposables? Love Tri-X but unless these are way cheaper than a 36 roll of Tri-X, why would anyone bother apart from a film fling?

I suppose they are thinking about a new market of those that don't have a film 35mm SLR sitting around anymore. But that's what got Kodak in trouble in the first place, they buried their heads in the sand when digital started really being popular- they had the best 'digital color science' in the industry but let the 'electronics' industry beat them to the market- companies like Panasonic and Sony that had no 'photo science' behind them.
