You still need film transparencies to project a decent image to 6' size for
photographic presentations and talks. Digital projectors don't have the resolution for
photographs.

KEEP DREAMING!!! The whole point of 35mm was convenience, convenience, and
more convenience. Digital out does the convenience factor by about a
hundred miles. And the beauty of digital is the ease of integrating it into
an editing pipeline. No, 35mm film is going the way of the dodo, it will be
used by collectors and a few stubborn individuals for many years to come,
but it is for all intents and purposes, well on its way out. And to be
honest, it's not a big loss, digital has a much, much higher ceiling.
Eventually we will have large format sized images in 35mm bodies. Why use
inferior 35mm film then??? Real-world side by side comparisons show that
the best 6MP DSLR's are already the equal of 35mm provia film. The
theoretical mumbo jumbo about how 35mm film is 50MP blah blah blah, its all
a bunch of hootenanny, lies, and BS. Fact is DSLR's have already equaled
and surpassed 35mm film. Its done for, there will be no resurgence.
