A sign of things to come
http://www.nikon.co.uk/press_room/releases/show.aspx?rid=201
Nikon has announced today that they are ending production of all film cameras except for the F6 and the FM10.
This is a big move, a really big move. I don't think any other manufacturer has gone this far before.
If you're a Nikon film shooter, look for support to dwindle as digital consumes the market place. I expect Canon to follow suit rather quickly with a similar announcement.
Film will always have a place in photography, just a much less prominent one. There are still applications where film is the right tool for the job, but digital has come quite a long way and continues to make tremendous advances.
Interesting times ahead.
edit: oh, I see this got on /. as well. I feel like this blog is turning into the /. relay hour...
