In a move reminiscent of Kodak’s recent attempt to establish the superiority of film, compared to digital, Kodak alaris has announced that they will “continue to offer the full range of photographic films and papers.” In addition, they have developed a Kodak Film iPhone app that helps you locate a store that still carries film. Now, I am near Minneapolis, and Minneapolis is not a small city. Guess what this app tells me, “Unfortunately no KODAK Retailers or KODAK Film Labs are located around this location.” Does anyone see a problem here?

Believe it or not, film is far better than digital. People look for instant satisfaction like children, but leaving out the quality.
