Because there is a demonstrated demand for it.

Without actually using their lab I have no way to know, but judging by some of their example images (this and this) for "their" color film / Aerocolor, I can't imagine their service would be worth the money, even at $6/sheet for dev and scan.

The product development process at CatLABS seems to be something like "what's the minimum viable product I can sell for the maximum price to noobs and suckers". All their products are just repackaging exercises. They are just a retail store. Their knowledge of the used product they sell is also...

Is there any word on Eastman selling sheet film under the new Ektacolor and Ektapan brand names?

Bump. Price drop to $3,200.

I was meaning more broadly, not just sale value.

The prompt was: Give me an Ansel Adams picture based on the title "Monolith, the Face of Half Dome" but make it ultra super awesome And I then applied maximum JPEG compression as my personal creative flair to really make it my own. I'm not sure what value my silly AI image has, if any. Do you...

Indeed. Here's my next submission, titled "My Monolith. My expert print of Half Dome". Please read my artist's journal for a behind the scenes peak at my process: Please understand that I achieved this without having to "previsualize" anything whatsoever, as Ansel Adams had to, which I...

You haven't told me what you think of my photograph yet Ralph! It's a visual interrogation of objects as they relate to the practice of photography (a camera) and the tension between 2D forms and 3D experience, whilst also paying homage to significant commercial efforts that provide context for...

Transparency or not, who's to say what appropriate AI generated imagery is? Here's my submission (excuse my lack of clear marker): Do you like my picture? I think it's really great. It has a lot of interesting aspects, many of which are photography related. Do you agree?

In my mind the better question is the inverse: what makes for the best photography forum? I'd argue it's focussing (ha!) on actual photography. I can appreciate there could be good arguments that introducing AI does in fact make for a better photography forum, but my intuition tells me...

Accommodations being made simply because one person didn't have an appropriate outlet necessarily degrades the integrity and purpose of Photrio, at least in my opinion. It appears I'm not alone with that opinion. There are many outlets for other art forms on the internet, and Photrio beginning...

If you need an engineering degree to appreciate a bridge, then it's not a very good bridge.

I think the "lens-based" approach is the simplest and most practical, making it quite straightforward. There are outliers, like photograms, chemigrams and other artefacts created using photographic equipment and materials, but it's revealing that these are not simply called photographs. The...
