Kodak braces for film's fade http://www.democratandchronicle.com/biznews/07246A1A3QC_ek24_business.shtml
"Photographic film, the product that helped create both a city and a company, is heading for the fate of the American elm tree, white gloves, enclosed phone booths, slide rules, carbon paper and other pieces of vanishing Americana." "Rochester�s largest employer acknowledged publicly for the first time Wednesday that film � its franchise for more than a century � is headed into a slow and lengthy decline, at least in the United States." "Kodak indicated that consumers were switching to digital cameras at a faster rate than expected and reducing their use of roll film accordingly � by 8 to 10 percent this year and more in coming years." -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
