But I could make backups of my films if I cared to invest the effort. Many have made copy negatives in the past.
Peace! Sidney

Or possible. Hence the rather nice book of Jacques Lowe's photos of
the Kennedy family, which had significant portions reconstructed from
the contact sheets, since the negatives had been in a nice, safe, bank
vault for long-term storage; a vault under the World Trade Center.
I'd rather have the opportunity to make my images safer than that (not that anybody will *care*, in my case).
