For those who still use film rather than digital, has anyone tried the
new Kodak high definition film? Good or bad experiences with it?
I'll be in Italy for Feb., expect I will run into more
hazy/misty/cloudy than crystal clear days. Not sure how the high-def
compares (given similar speeds) to the Kodak Max for example.

I used it in London a couple weeks ago. I didn't think of the "high
definition" designation as anything more than a marketing gimmick. Picture
quality seems no different than that of other brands of film, though I've
yet to make prints any larger than 4x6. Perhaps in doing so I would see the
benefits of Kodak HD.

You might try www.photo.net/bboard and go to the q and a session. There is

a rather lengthy discussion of it and comparison to Portra 400.

Is this the Kodak 'Portra' series of films, or something new?
