I think film will only remain interesting in real sizes, I mean, larger
than 35mm. The "snapshot" 35mm will be dead in a few years. (at least in
the western world) What will remain is 6x6 and 4x5".... BIG film. And if
you still want to use film, why not do it right? At least you'll see
some difference.

PS: now is the time to buy that Hasselblad, Rolleiflex, Linhof Technika,
or Fuji 690....

Even medium format is on the ropes with the 11 megapixel canon out there. I
say, wait longer and medium format prices will drop yet further. Of course,
the RB67 is selling quite cheaply now.

As to Mike, this seems like another troll post, don't you think, Mike?
Classic film cameras are classic because they were well regarded at one
time, but are no longer produced today. Some have fallen completely by the
wayside for lack of parts. How is this going to change in any case?
