fate of specialist tradespeople

Just wondering about the coming fate of the unfortunate traditional camera repair technician. What shall become of him? Being able to service a technology that is on its death bed. All the new cameras are mostly digital and I am sure that by the next generation of humans, that all cameras shall be digital. Previously needing only some mechanical know-how to service a camera now requires a technician to be an electronics expert. It is also not easy to send for re-training as it takes many years to study and be good in electronics.

Hmmm... wonder what other people will be affected?
