is Kodak dead?
I like to remind Kodak that I know more about their business than they do
here is a list of the possible imaging chain participations 1) colorant manufacturing 2) color specification (standards, palette books, etc.) 3) color measurement hardware 4) image creation hardware/software 5) image capture/repro hardware 6) image capture/repro medias 7) image manipulation and color management (software and hardware) 8) image output hardware 9) image output media I'd like to see Kodak explain its participations relative to this list to industry/stock analysts, in each of the markets it participates, and ESPECIALLY the workflows that are used in those markets, not the tendency for Kodak to try to introduce bogus workflows to take over a whole labs operations with no added value the markets I worked in at Kodak were consumer photography, professional photography and some graphic arts, out of 10 years work, 5 was on digital I looked at Kodak's product offerings on their website no digital minilab for consumer image fulfillment (output) no professional digital cameras no fulfillment (printers) for labs supporting professional capture, neither the portrait market, nor the commercial little color management or specification support for labs supporting professional capture you'd think by now that Kodak would puts its silver halide film etc., production, in a bare bones mode, no R&D, minimal management, etc., and focus on the market needs of today and tomorrow with all the layoffs Kodak has had, virtually no management has ever been cut seriously, it was way to top heavy when I was there, and is way to top heavy now, it has a serious middle management attitude, and a culture of delegation, no responsibility, and no accountability -- Dale http://www.vedantasite.org see website for real email address |
