Kodak Braces for Film's Fade, from the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. I mention a few weeks ago how I was very surprised that a high quality film product like Supra 100 was dropped by Kodak, and the photo store said there was no replacement product. This article has some figures about the shift from film to digital: "Rochester's largest employer acknowledged publicly for the first time Wednesday that film - its franchise for more than a century - is headed into a slow and lengthy decline, at least in the United States. In its second-quarter earnings report, Kodak indicated that consumers were switching to digital cameras at a faster rate than expected and reducing their use of roll film accordingly - by 8 to 10 percent this year and more in coming years." 6:30:07 AM
