SDHC cards can have 32GB capacities. That is roughly 2,000 M9 images. 600 rolls of film. At one ounce per roll, that is 600 ounces or 40 pounds. That would not even clear the weight issues with airline travel these days.... Maybe it was the camera industry that pushed for weight reductions on airlines.....
