Digital Film Roll for 35mm Cameras

Silicon Film was interesting in 1998 because we all had cameras that were becoming useless.

But not anymore and not in this crude format, where electronics are outside and not in the film roll like in Silicon Film.

I think there’s definitely a market for this if it works. Lots of people who’d love a more convenient way to use classic film cameras.

However, historically, there’s been a series of products like this that have turned out to be vaporware.
