He invented roll film for photography
But the movie film format as such was designed by Edison
Also, celluloid base film is no longer used. I think they use acetate and other materials —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Egil (talk • contribs) 05:17, January 24, 2003 (UTC)
"He invented roll film for photography." No, he didn't. David H. Houston did, in 1881. Trekphiler 18:02, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
Something is wrong with the dates here. Born 1854 ... moved to Rochester 1860 (age 6) ... father died "two years later) (1862) (age 8) and he left high school. How did he even get into high school at age 8? Scott Johnson 19:03, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
The bit about the letter "O" seems fishy. If you look at the cited source, About.com, it talks about the letter "K" instead, as does the Wikipedia page about Eastman Kodak. Here's the sentence that seems fishy: The letter "O" had been a favorite of Eastman's, he is quoted in saying, "it seems a round, endless sort of letter" Brian Douglas Skinner 12 December 2007 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.18.215.96 (talk) 03:33, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
