the CD came out just before 1980. it was very expensive at first and just
for show. i attended some of the Sony seminars when they were first coming
out. you couldn't buy anything at a "record store" until about 1982 though.

i would not be surprised to see ISO 800 color print film be about the only
easily obtainable color one.
