A few months ago, Dixons waved goodbye to the VCR. Now, it's the turn of the 35mm camera. Once 35mm camera stocks run out, your local Dixons store won't stock any more, although you may be able to get hold of a classic camera from duty-free stores.
Dixons said that the decision to stop selling 35mms was a sentimental one. A company spokesman said: "35mm cameras were the first products we ever sold and film processing has been a part of our lives for several decades. Time and technology move on, though, and digital cameras are now the rule rather than the exception."
