Don't forget that the big players (Kodak, Fuji, Agfa) also supply chemicals, paper, etc for photofinishing. Inkjet and dye sub printers are very slow on any kind of quantities. The Fuji Frontier and Agfa D-Lab printing systems do a great job with digital input and rapidly and cheaply output prints. These companies may see a drop in film production and sales, but the photofinishing supplies should still be around.
