While I still have film cameras around I find it hard

Some types of film are no longer manufactured. Kodak stopped making
Kodachrome, Ektachrome and Elite Chrome Extra Color sometime this year.
I even had trouble finding something as simple as a
Compact Flash card around here because everyone now has a camera phone, and
I've had a camera phone for years and while they are _great_ for taking simple
snapshots as a memory aid (e.g. take a foto of that poster advertising that
event instead of writing it all down), those cameras still suck. Tiny sensors.
If I actually want to do some photographing, I grab my Nikon D300s ;-)
Kind regards,
Alex.
