Eastman Kodak Company
343 State Street
Rochester, New York 14650

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am General Counsel and Senior Vice President of Eastman Kodak 
Company, a New Jersey corporation ("Kodak").

With respect to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the 
"Registration Statement") filed today by Kodak with the Securities 
and Exchange Commission for the purpose of registering under the 
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, 4,000,000 additional shares of 
common stock, $2.50 par value, of Kodak (the "Shares") to be granted 
to participants, or issued upon the exercise of options and stock 
appreciation rights, or issued in connection with other awards 
granted under the Eastman Kodak Company 1995 Omnibus Long-Term 
Compensation Plan (the "Plan"), I have examined originals or copies, 
certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of such 
corporate records, certificates, and other documents and instruments, 
and such questions of law, as I have considered necessary or 
desirable for the purpose of this opinion.

Based on the foregoing, I am of the opinion that when the 
Registration Statement has become effective and the Shares have been 
issued and delivered as contemplated in the Plan, the Shares will be 
legally issued, fully paid, and non-assessable.

I consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the 
Registration Statement.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Gary P. Van Graafeiland

Gary P. Van Graafeiland
General Counsel and Senior Vice President

Company's
Registration Statement on Form S-8 for the Eastman Kodak Company 1995 
Omnibus Long-Term Compensation Plan.  The total filing fee of 
$79,686.88 was due as a result of this Registration Statement.

Pursuant to Instruction E to Form S-8, simultaneously with the filing 
of this Registration Statement on Form S-8, the registrant is filing 
another Registration Statement on Form S-8 to post-effectively amend 
the contents of Registration No. 333-23371 to deregister 3,000,000 
shares.  Registrant will carry forward these 3,000,000 shares to this

shares to the filing fee due as a result of the 4,000,000 shares 
being registered by this Registration Statement on Form S-8.

Thus, as a result of applying the $79,686.88 to the total filing fee 
of $79,686.88 due as a result of this Registration Statement, there 
is no balance owing.
