A very few practitioners bought a whole lot and still do them, but the number is down to single digits. If you really want a dye transfer then contact Ctein. As for a cibachrome, to do it right you almost always have to make a contrast mask which can take a couple trials and so $$. Just like Leica's, there are enough people who say the digital output is "just as good" to make practitioners of the Ciba art a diminishing lot.
