Am I the only one here who feels just a little sadness at this news?  
Probably not.  Sure, we've all moved on.  Like most of you I haven't 
shot a roll of K-chrome in years.  Still, whenever one of the wonderful 
materials we used goes away that's one less choice that we have.  This 
is a big one.  The question was never if, only when.  Still sad.

If Leica went away most photographers would say ho hum, they haven't 
been relevant for years.  We know better.
