This is what I was saying. That they will fade the film out. They will do this in 
order to spend resources on other areas. By analysts, this is seen as sensible 
decicions. Theres no doubt from the interview that quitting the film production 
totally is the final goal. According to the Agfa boss it would be unvise and 
irresponsible for Agfa to ignore the market trends but he stress that Agfas retreat 
from film manufacturing will happen gradually.
The fact remains that the digital explosion have exceeded all expectation and I'm 
certain both film and camera manufacturers are re-evaluating their plans.
