The dropping of the Ektachromes doesn't bother me. They're all old films
made unchanged for 20 yrs or more. I suspect most people long ago switched
to newer films like Kodak's E100G series, which I use and am happy with.
Will be a shame to lose HIE though. I never did a lot of IR shooting but it
was a fun thing to do occasionally.
