The times they are a'changing. Sad. But a terrific shot. V

Agree; sad. Have enjoyed the varied, wonderful outcomes
from your Mamiya RB67!! Is there not some other source?

It is amazing how things have changed in the last 20 years in photography.
Stock up on the film if you can.
Nice sharp image of the worlds sharpest.

That sucks.
Peggy W29-Aug-2012 14:37
What a sad day.... I hope you have a few boxes stockpiled~ I really enjoy looking at your film images..
Mieke WA Minkjan29-Aug-2012 07:39
never worked with this method, but I can imagine your feelings about losing another icon
Sheila29-Aug-2012 06:42
An excellent product shot. Iconic for many.

Great tribute to Kodak...I really miss those film days..V

..good tribute to a saga, which might continue, but more expensive! V.

I echo Bill's comments. It's a shame that availabilty is soon coming to an end. Such a quality product, Karen..

A real pity that :(

simmering colours..and a stellar salute to a marvelous emulsion...apparently the end is nigh...I have two rolls left in the fridge, very possibly expired already...might have to fire up the F-80 or the N-2000 in a gesture of respect..already the F-70 and FA seem candidates for relegation to the mantlepiece..

Miss the film but not the cost now compared to digital.

The end of an era. With digital devices getting smaller and smaller, perhaps one day we will get RGBCMYK sensors.

Gorgeous image souvenir Karen vote

Film was kind of expensive though...

A sad day.

I remember reading reviews of film which had the best color, finest grain etc. Nice capture of a dying media. Too bad as film has warmth to it kinda like how vinyl records to CDs...
Terry Sprague28-Aug-2012 22:22
sad day. hope you are stockpiling.
laine28-Aug-2012 22:17
They will be back...everything turns around these days
Laryl28-Aug-2012 21:23
times are changing so much in our lifetime!
Walter Otto Koenig28-Aug-2012 21:17
The end of an era I never thought would end. I must admit I've only shot a few rolls of film since going digital in 2004.

Great! V.

So sad. I used to love film and developing it, waiting to see the results....
