Sonny,

Here's a company in 8mm film that's still in business. And Leica is 
struggling to remain afloat.  Could it be that one is sticking with a 
niche (or niches),.while the other is trying to become something new.  
Not that simple, perhaps. OTOH, maybe it is. In any event, I find it 
interesting.
