Despite having recently embraced an *istD, I must say this for film:
One day when I'm old and gray and doddering, no matter what happens, no
matter what image file formats are patented or whether the last 50
terrabit Selenium Memory Pin reader in the world gives up the ghost; worst
comes to worst, I can always hold my negatives up to the light.
And since it is unlikely that technology like magnifying glasses and other
lenses will become obsolete, worst will not come to worst.
And even if Digital should be replaced by Quantum Imaging, I can at least
take a Quantum image of my negative and reverse the colours in
PhotoGalaxy.
