That's not a bad thing.Instant photographs have their uses, like checking light levels and such, but this can all be done digitally now.
Also, my only photographic memory of a recently deceased cousin is a polaroid print made in 1986. If it had been 35MM, it might have lived on.
I love analogue technologies, but photochemical prints have had their day.

Yeah, sorry.I'm an engineer.
There's nothing wrong with having tangible, palpable objects like photographs, but in the 21st century we have to accept that most of the intermediate steps are likely to be digital.

There are applications where digital is the only wayHowever, film should be used where it can. In my art, I've always shot film, scanning it to sizes you'll never get with the fanciest digital camera you can think of.

Agreed.....photos were never really my thing, I never got good prints back from the lab, my first good photographs were digital.
My favourite synthesisers are completely analogue, there's a quality to the voices that just can't be recreated digitally.
