Additionally, Kodak's investment in the technology affords us the opportunity
to offer customized filters to meet specified spectral characteristics for
various markets."
The new KODAK WRATTEN 2 Carbon ND Filters are primarily designed for use
with instrumentation applications. Hallatt notes that they cost less and are
easier to convert than metallic coated glass filters. Other features include
reduced light fading and enhanced neutrality from the visible to infrared
region of the spectrum.

entertainment content," adds Hallatt. "Kodak is dedicated to investing in
motion picture film technology and the ancillary origination tools that offer
filmmakers more options for telling their stories."
