 I mean, really, these are the folks, making all their money on film and processing, who decided to try and spend their marketing capital and brand prestige on 'Hey, let's mess with 35mm, like we did with 110 and 120! Planned obsolescence never worked before, but it improves balance sheets for a year! Time to try again! (Ooh, though, P&S contest. I'll play, if non-Pentax things are OK. ) Just keep the film and soup coming, Rochester. We'll do the rest. Last edited by Ratmagiclady; 12-18-2008 at 10:33 AM. Reason: Forgot to mention |
