Nikon bans film images from this year's Nikon Photo Contest

[Keith]

@Keith & thegman . . .

You guys ruined everything now.
It's a small group of old guys in a basement somewhere in a forgotten Nikon
factory who have been producing F6's. Small budget got lost under "miscellaneous".

You blew their cover.

Perhaps it's like those legendary small pockets of Japanese soldiers in the Pacific after WWll who wouldn't stop fighting because they didn't know it was all over! 😛

Can I still take pictures with my film cameras...???

Yes, but do not mention it to Nikon.

I find this hilarious. Bunch of babies. I bet they're still pissed at Ken Rockwell for his film adventures. He really hurt their widdle feewings.

:angel:

Just use your DSLR to "scan" the negative... technically means it took the photo.

No, film cameras are dead. Send them to me, PM for address, postage paid.

I will accept any over flow, no one will take old film cameras before long.

The digital camera sales numbers recently posted to another thread are somewhat Kobayashi Maru. So they take a page out of JT Kirk's book: if you can't win, change the rules.

;P

Isn't that if you can't win, cheat?

And, I am a Star Trek fan BTW..

Not posting this to spread panic about the "death" of film. Just thought it would be of interest to many here.

For me it shows a dreary lack of imagination on the part of Nikon.

I fail to see a reason for concern.
