while I know digitalīs the way to go, itīs a shame to see "no more film". The colours, the technique, the final image is always great to see from a professional photographer using film
I've wondered about the wisdom of Canon doing this: photo (and probably art) schools still teach film photography, and some students get bitten by the bug and keep doing it. And all the students who become professionals will probably have started on a Nikon film camera, and so have Nikon digital bodies as the lenses and other accessories work on both film and digital cameras. It's the same idea as Apple putting their computers in primary schools to get the kids using their products while they're young.
