Film is obselete?

Hi, I am thinking of getting a film SLR camera for Christmas this year
and I was kind of worried that maybe soon people won't be selling film
or developing film any more. Is there any chance of the price of film
skyrocketing and the price of developing film skyrocketing?
The guy at the store told me that the only difference now that digital
out is that there isn't as much variety different of film available
anymore. He told me that film costs the same.
Thanks,
Andrew

Thanks, but I woke up in the middle of the night and wondered about the
atmospheric loses on Earth. That really may throw a wrench in the
works. I think we should all chip in to send who ever started all this
to Mercury with a good light meter, maybe even a radio :-)

Don't forget that there is no atmosphere on Mercury ... so it is MUCH brighter
there.

No, I want a spot meter in the camera. I don't know about other brands,
but as far I know, Nikon never made a mechnical camera that includes a
spot meter. So you have to use a battery dependent camera. Not that I
mind taking extra batteries.

That was it. Done. The faulty Monk was turned out into the desert where it
could believe what it liked, including the idea that it had been hard done
by. It was allowed to keep its horse, since horses were so cheap to make.

Philip, may I interject a question? Specifically a spot meter for slide film
other than the camera's meter, why is that, as a choice of yours?

I would use the relative distances from the sun of the two planets, plus the
inverse square rule to figure out how much brighter it is on
Mercury.....Shouldn't be too hard to do......

I didn't wine, I stated what I was thinkong of at the time, and as I was
cleaning and repairing the circut brakers and finding out what had tripped
them I was off a bit but still far better than what was first given.

There are those who believe that life here, began out there, far across the
universe, with tribes of humans, who may have been the forefathers of the
Egyptians, or the Toltechs, or the Mayans. Some believe that they may yet be
brothers of man, who even now fight to survive, somewhere beyond the
heavens.
