Hi:

I'm using kodak camera 2000 CGP film. I have a very helpful contact at
CGP graphics (kodak polychrome graphics) He told me Kodak was going to
discontinue a lot of their ortho films, but they have no plans to
discontinue CGP, at least until every pre-press shop goes digital.

I don't have many developers to choose from "off the shelf" here - It's
easier for me to mix my own.
