Are you guys talking about old Velvia 50? - Because "new" Fujichrome Velvia 50 can still be purchased  :)

ok, so, you know, maybe it was a bit much saying its dead but, its just impossible noticing that its harder to get the support I use to get.

Comments and critique on the above photo are welcome.

Get it from B&H, seems half the price that I have to pay for it.

You've just stated just one reason why most of my shooting as of late has been with film.  To me personally, it's simply more fun than digital.  :)

I don't think film will ever die. Polaroid is still alive. Sorta.
