Might not be the right area of the Forum to ask but here goes.

Does any one know is any of the current camera manufactures use KODAK sensors in their cameras?

That excludes the compact types, thinking more of anything that can change a lens, so DSLR, Rangefinder or Medium Format?

I think that Kodak had a "tie up" with Nikon to produce DSLR cameras for the US space programme. Not sure about the detail.

Kodak sold it's sensor producing division about 4 years ago to help improve the company's financial situation. Don't know what followed that.
 
Only medium format I think, with Kodak CCDs. Old technology now.
 
Thanks for the info chaps.
 
Not to drag this up; but I use Truesense KAI sensors for my work (machine vision) - I believe these are still in production in up-to 4/3 format. Truesense where the ex-Kodak spinoff, who where bought on by ON Semiconductor, who still manufacture sensors of varying formats. Not certain of any specific SLRs, but they appear in machine vision cameras. Maybe not what you are looking for, but they all have interchangeable lenses:
