Not really. Lots of people are still shooting it, and some are going back (or trying film for the first time). Shooting film has a different feel to it and some people simply prefer it. It's valid speculation. May not happen in a serious way, but it is happening (and it's driven prices up on a lot of MF kit, since if you're going to go back to film, why not get big negs) I'm one of them. Occasionally I'd prefer to shoot digital (usually in bars, or for flash work), but I prefer working with my film cameras, and prefer the post-camera workflow for film. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
