    Those of you who shoot the Advantix film system should be aware the format is spiraling to its demise. Kodak will process the film for the foreseeable future, but you know how that goes. :sad:

    On the bright side, I picked up 9 rolls of 25-exp the other day for $8.00! Some retailers are dumping it at ridiculous prices, check the film rack next time you go shopping. :teeth:

    Anyone here shooting Advantix still?

    I thought they already stopped making Advantix a while ago. Or was that APS?

    Same thing! I think I actually miss-spoke: Advantix is the Kodak brand and Advanced Photo System was the format name. Kodak recently obsoleted their camera line of APS, and the other mfgs had before that. Too bad, it was a high quality easy format that took dynamite sharp photos.

    Anytime any format goes under is a good time for serious bargain-hunting if you are willing to put up with some minor hassles. I noticed a couple of stores suddenly liquidating the film, whereas they wanted full price only just last week...

    FWIW I also shoot digital.
