Guys, I woke up in the middle of the night thinking about what to do with all my film and darkroom gear now that it is about worthless. I'm told schools won't take it. I'll not likely do anything but ink-jet prints from now on. I got to wondering what film camera, besides my panorama cams, I'd want if I only had one. I guess an all-mechanical 35mm makes the most sense. Some are speculating on Hassy's - the theory is an affordable digital back for them is likely to show up. There is nothing equivalent to a traditional black and white photographic print in any format - so what?
