That's a good new ChrisL!!!

I'm still planning and wanting to get the F100 specially with Nikon withdrawing most of their Film Camera Body (Except for the FM10 and F6). I want to have a film Camera Body before they Disappear

Do you think the prices of film cameras will start going up? I too want to buy a Nikon film body, but was planning on building up my lens collection before buying a film body. I'm really glad Fuji is planning on staying in business, I love their slide film. :)

If your planning to get a Film Camera I suggest grab one first before they run out in the market, lens will be there forever but Film Camera Body? I don't know

That's good to hear. I agree with what the Fujifilm statement says about advantages of film over digital cameras. I have an old Bell & Howell camera that I paid $10 for, and it produces much higher quality photos than a digital camera I could buy for anywhere near that amount. Also it doesn't need any batteries if I'm not using a flash and it's entirely mechanical so it's very reliable.

There is a reason they call it news, generally news isnt over a year old.

You seem more and more like a 'turfer to me.
