Kodak braces for film's fade http://www.democratandchronicle.com/biznews/07246A1A3QC_ek24_business.shtml
"Photographic film, the product that helped create both a city and a company, is heading for the fate of the American elm tree, white gloves, enclosed phone booths, slide rules, carbon paper and other pieces of vanishing Americana." "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." "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." -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
