When 35mm ceases to be available for decent prices, I'll quit 35mm
photography altogether. Keep my M4 and 50 DR Summicron just as
sentimental pieces that went through war with me. 
For image gathering on silver, I'll use my own glass plates and a 4x5. I
have the back ready to go right now and two cameras to use.
