Showcase Photo, 40+ year veterans of the Atlanta photography retail scene, have closed their doors. There's an extensive and insightful interview with the owner about the state of the industry over at PetaPixel.

I bought from them irregularly over the space of 20 years, but only film and darkroom stuff. By the end that had been relegated to one small shelf, and I had started buying from New York.

Every once in a while I'd need some 120 at the last minute and run in there and pay $30 for a Pro Pack, which only reinforced my desire to always keep it well stocked!

Terry Shuchat, who owned Keeble & Shuchat Photography in Palo Alto, California, for 51 years and closed in October 2016, says: “The photo industry is really in trouble. So many people are no longer buying cameras. They’re quite happy with pictures from smartphones and that has taken away a nice chunk of the photo business. So few people are printing pictures and that was also a nice part of the business.”
