Digital and film are different medias w/ different strengths. You can look at it as a competition or survival race but i chose to to have both and chose accordingly. I am not extravagant .. it´s common attitude in certain fields. That´s why i believe film will last.
The photo industry made it a survival race. "Digital is here and film is gone". Wrong. Film kept being used in many important applications.
You don´t even need Fuji or Kodak anymore if you shoot BW though i love tri-x.
Since there is interest from new young photographers and companies catering to them like Ferrania and Ilford, i believe film survived.
If Fuji decides they are a digital only company.. it´s a free world: good luck to Fuji. I never used their neopan and don´t care for Acros. Ilford is invested in HP5. There is tri x and T max. There is Portra. There is no doom and gloom but very few film cameras are offered. If people are buying film, someone will sell a film camera. That´s how it works, right?
