If it ends up in the right hands this could be good news for film photographers.

Sad. But they so lost the plot. Rabbits/headlights spring to mind.

Out of interest do you think film is used much at all. Every man and his dog has a digi camera, what do the professionals use these days.

I seem to recall some years ago Ektachrome colour reversal printed on Cibrachrome was the way to go, or did my little grey cells make that up?

There will always be a niche... but Kodak brought out the first 'PROPER' digital camera, but it was crap and WAY too much money. They were in pole but didn't know it. They never caught up.
