Shooting film is actually a growing market again these days, so I would want them to release an affordable new film camera.
They already license out the Kodak brand for the Kodak H35, which is a fun half-frame 35mm point-and-shoot, but it’s cheaply made and very light on features, so there’s still a gap in the market for something more advanced.
Pentax has recently reentered that exact market with the Pentax 17, but at ~£500 retail I believe another company like Kodak could undercut them and gain a following.
They’re never going to successfully compete with high end DSLR manufacturers like Canon, and the ultra-cheap analogue film market is flooded with near-identical ‘toy’ cameras, but there’s absolutely space for them to make a comeback as a trusted mid-range boutique brand for enthusiasts.
Congrats on missing the entire point of what the guy is saying.
The people losing their jobs are not the ones making the decisions that created a (subjectively) bad product.
