This movie shows how 120 film was made in 1958. I don't know how the process has changed, but the amount of work that goes into and the volume of film they made is incredible.

Cool, thanks for posting this.

By the way, if you want a more contemporary look at this, check out this guy's book (http://makingkodakfilm.com/index.html) -- I bought it last year, and it is very cool...

Thanks! What a great piece of history! And didn't need the subtitles this time; All is Dutch spoken. ;-)

Film is clever but what about the people that designed all this automated machinery ... more sophisticated than I expected to be honest!

14 tonnes of silver per week ... and that was just that plant. Imagine how much was being used world wide by all manufacturers at that point in time! 😱
