It also reminded me of a key disadvantage of digital. I pulled out
slides and negs I shot in 1965, and they're a bit dusty and faded, but

able to view my DNGs in 2051?
Your DNGs ... possibly.
Your JPEGs and TIFFs ... certainly.
I've not lost a single digital image I've created, starting in 1984. I
don't know how many thousands of negatives, slides, and prints have been
lost as I could never account them properly. I don't miss them.
Same here. I've lost far more negatives and slides than digital images.
Far easer to backup, store, organize and find digital stuff, too.
