yes, most of us agree that the discontinuance of k25 is a great loss.  i've
received a hail of criticism for asserting that the future of photography
lies in the digital realm, and that instead of investing in antique 3d
cameras, it might be a good idea to open up to the new format. i even went
so far as to predict that digital will equal or surpass film very soon. i
mean VERY soon!
eventually all film-based cameras will hit the dust, though not for a while.
the main problem right now is in digital projection.  digital projectors are
costly, but when was the last time that someone described the rbt projector
as "cheap"?
if your precious slides have ever been melted or mangled just once by a tdc
stereo projector, that might be an incentive to move on.
i expect more criticisms, and name-calling, but the more we cling to the
past, the longer it will take for a stereo digital camera to be produced.
