据AP News:
...Equally startling has been the plunge in film camera sales over the last
decade. Domestic purchases have tumbled from 19.7 million cameras in 2000 to
280,000 in 2009 and might dip below 100,000 this year, said Yukihiko
Matsumoto, the Jackson, Mich.-based association's chief researcher...
...Kodak remains the world's biggest film manufacturer, with Japan's Fuji
right on its tail. But the consumer and professional films they make have
dwindled to a precious few dozen film stocks in a handful of formats,
becoming one more factor in the mammoth drop-off in film processing...
...Scott's Photo in Rochester finally stopped daily processing of color
print film this year because fewer than one in 20 customers are dropping off
film. A decade ago, "we could process 300 rolls on a good day, and now we
see maybe 8 or 10 rolls on the few days we actually process," owner Scott
Sims said...
...Even at major photography schools, film is an elective specialty...
...
But with the film market shrinking by more than 20 percent annually, most
other signs point downhill. Analysts foresee Kodak offloading its still-
profitable film division sometime in the next half-dozen years as it battles
to complete a long and painful digital transformation...
