I checked my known good film (purchased from Adorama last December and
which I have shot and processed 3 rolls) and it has the cap on the left.
The non-starburst stuff I got from ePix last week also has the cap on
the left. Both the known good and the ePix have the same CAT # 861
0800. I intend to shoot some of the ePix film this weekend.

Well for Pete's sake! Could Kodak have made this any harder? Chris
and
George received non-starburst film and got the cap on the left. Mike got
the
cap on the right with his non-starburst film. I have both, one fro! m
Canada
(left) and from Adorama. (right) I guess that this means that either not
all
of the Royal Supra has a starburst on it, or Kodak changed the lid
before
they ran out of Supra.
Can anyone comment on the film markings along the edge of the
rebate?
Does Royal Supra actually say "Royal Supra 400-1" or something similar?
Call
be paranoid, but it looks to me like the starburst may not be an
accurate
indicator after all. Is the starburst painted on the box, or can it be
peeled off??

OUCH! That stuff on the left is what I picked up in December here in
Montreal. And no star burst anywhere. Looks like I have some more
landscape film.
