NEW YORK -- Nikon Corp., which helped popularize the 35mm camera five
decades ago, will stop making most of its film cameras to concentrate
on digital models.
With all the advances in technology over the past 10 years alone, isn't it amazing that we're still using light bulbs in our homes which have basically remained unchanged for over 100 years?
Edison's lab 1876, Home Depot 2006...same frickin' thing.

I've been having problems finding film sometimes. Of course, I don't use the film camera very often, but there are times when it just works better for me than the digital camera I own.
What I really want is a digital camera that will be able to shoot as quickly as my film camera. (And even that is somewhat slow for some of the things I like to do.)
I broke down about a year or so ago and spent many dollars on a digital SLR from Nikon. Unlike most digital cameras, there's no delay.
I haven't really gotten the hang of it though - I was very into using slide film for several years which I thought took magnificent, richly colored pictures, some of which got published.
