Actually, I was surprised at the question also. I am in law enforcement, do evidence and accident photography. I have never heard of this film and outside of the quickie glovebox point and shoots, digital is overtaking film at a rapid pace. There are still some arguments being made regarding manipulation of photos and what is considered permissible.
