In a mere 15 years or so we have gone from questioning the viability of digital cameras to the point that film is obsolete. I've got probably close to 500 rolls of negatives, still have my Nikon F3, nothing like it. If Tri-X has not already gone by the wayside, I'm sure it won't be too long. Anyone else sad at the passing of the age of film? There used to be real photographic artists, not anymore.

The attached pic is one I took in Cabo in 1999, yes, on film.

Jake, but sometimes evolution makes mistakes. A painter can still use the same methods/materials that have been used for centuries. So can a blacksmith, stonemason, etc. But you can't be a film photographer if there is not enough of a base to support sales of the materials. I can still scan the negatives I have fortunately. I've not checked recently but I can probably, for now, still get negative film and developer. I used to do all my own developing, then scan and print digitally. Kodachrome though is a specialized process that needed to be done in a professional lab.
