Ektar was a color 35mm and 120 semi-professional film introduced by Eastman Kodak in 1989, which used the common C-41 process. It was designed to offer ultra-fine grain. It was manufactured in 25, 100 (later replaced with 125), and 1000 ISO formats. Poor market segmentation was cited as a factor in Kodak's decision to discontinue Ektar in 1994. The film was replaced by the Royal Gold line. The 120 version of Ektar was discontinued in 1997.

A new film is introduced in September 2008 under the name KODAK PROFESSIONAL EKTAR 100, which claims to be the finest-Grain Color Negative Film with high saturation and vivid colors.

Ektar also refers to Eastman Kodak's premium-priced lenses for professional use, which were introduced in 1939 and sold until the 1960s. The name "Ektar" is an acronym for Eastman Kodak TessAR.
