Description
[Eastman Kodak Co, NY] A registered trademark for a color film. Kodacolor® was first developed in 1928 as a 16 mm color motion picture film for amateur photographers. Using a cellulose acetate based support, the film system produced color images using filters in the camera. However, sensitivity was poor because the filters cut down the light intensity. In 1942, the name Kodacolor® was given to the first true color negative film. Kodacolor® film made it possible to take color snapshots with low-priced cameras.
