Silicon Film is Vapor Ware.

Besides that, no one in their right mind would want Silicon Film. It
doesn't take very much intelligence to see the flaws in the system. Just
stop and think about the whole process from start to finish. You'll
discover that film cameras were made to use film. Digital cameras are
designed specifically for the digital process. They are two different
worlds. To try and make them commingle is sheer lunacy.
