It seems strange that forum still exists. The popular photography website The Luminous Landscape (also known as LuLa) is undergoing major changes. That reminded me to look over at the Kodak DSLR site. Now it looks like the gadget enthusiasts have turned their eyes elsewhere, so I guess the "serious" photography market will shrink back to its pre-digital size? I have recently purchased a Canon ProGraf 1000 and I have huge problems printing borderless on custom paper sizes (12 x 18 inches and 8 x 12 inches). Each month more than one million people from every country on the globe visit LuLa. Since its inception in 1999 LuLa has become the worlds largest site devoted to the art, craft, and technology of photography. The problem we're having is getting cards to feed consistently.

Prior to the mainstream introduction of digital cameras, there was a market for film enthusiasts. Camera technology, excluding cell phones, is about as cold as it can get. I don't remember the exact numbers but I think DSLR sales peaked about 2012 and must now be at something like only 20% of the peak. It is not just the LL website or decreased interest in printing. Interest has dropped at about the same rate as camera sales. It seems clear to me that digital photography has pasted its peak.
