Notice anything of note, interest, etc. in the profile of those bringing
in memory cards, etc. for printing?

Not so. Those consumers who used to bring film in for processing are now
bringing in memory cards for us to print, and those prints are basically the
same cost as film prints and are on the same paper.

Bill, we understand your worry. Your job is on the line. I would suggest
your
local government agency that retrains folks for new jobs, except that from
my
experience they will only retrain you for another obsolete about to go
down the
drain of progress job.
Something to think about though, there are still blacksmiths out there,
still
making a living.

I know what you are saying but I think everyone here is
overreacting. Calm
down, there are too many cameras out there that shoot film for film
to go away
any time soon...
I assure you, I am quite calm, and only somewhat enebriated.
What part of "processing is down 50% over last year" dis you miss?
A year ago I was processing upwards of 700 rolls per day on a normal
day.
This year, a busy day is 400 rolls, average is closer to 300.
Every one I talk to is in the same boat.
Where I live, another small player that wasn't able to adapt to
digital processing went tits up just a few weeks ago.
Define "soon"
