A HUGE moneymaker for fuji and thorn in kodak's side. It's safe to say that no newspaper has ever routinely used Velvia, you can't buy it at Walmart, and most snappers think it's a cheese spread; so who is buying it? The same people who will continue to buy film long after the best route to a snapshot is a microchip. Film may become an art supply, but just as silver emulsion didn't signal the end of oil paint, so digital will not be the end of film.
