Im a 60 something photographer. Learned the art with manual film cameras in the 70's when I was 10, made a living with film and digital, and still till this day shoot film. For me, film teaches you to see the image you take, all of it. All my cameras are manual or can be used in manual, I only shoot in manual, including focusing. It puts you in control of how your image will look, instead of relying on a computer to make the decisions. I love that the younger generation are going to film, it means the artform will not be lost, and a new appreciation of capturing an image, one image at a time. Once you have shot film, you will never shoot digital the same way again. Spray and pray if fine for highspeed action, but if you use a digital camera the same way you use a film camera, your photos will mean more to you because you made all the decisions to get that photo, and not the AUTO mode. For me, film is about getting the shot right in camera, before its even processed, and then tweaking it in the dark room. (or lightroom these days now I dont process my own stuff anymore). If you look up early works of Jay Maisel, joe McNally, Annie Leibovitz, back when they shot film, they would all say the same thing, get it right in camera and then you know you have a good shot. You are right when you say film teaches you to slow down and appreciate what it is you are photographing. The sad thing is people only see the final result, with no appreciation for how the shot was achieved. But we do, and with any art, we appreciate it and that creates the PASSION for photography. Film isn't dead, it's just waiting for those who want to appreciate the art to come along. Great video 😃😃

Love this! I started shooting film again this year and you're right about the process feeling more authentic. Digital is great, and I'll keep shooting on my digital cameras, but I feel like my digital work often leans more towards achieving business oriented photography instead of just creating art for the enjoyment of creating something. The analogy of film photography being like playing a vinyl record holds up. There is something special in how analog mediums feel, their tactile nature, the overall slowed-down experience and the additional knowledge of the craft that is required.

While true, I think the fact that film almost requires (technically not, but most do so anyways) you to print your shots. Printing your digitals gives a similar sense of tangibility. Although the psychological effects of having limited shots definitely isn’t replicable on digital.

Had to put it aside for a while when film was getting too expensive and I had a growing family, then restarted with digital, only to also move back to film. What you say about craftsmanship is absolutely true - to use film well, you have to slow down and choose your shots. And it's far too easy to lose track of digital shots in our libraries, while we can pull out an old photo album at any point. Glad you've started on this path.

Personally, I started getting into film photography this year because of how separated and disconnected I've felt growing up from the world around me when I did. My entire life has felt like I've had all these problems the older generation faced, just completely negated with technology. Never had to bake my own bread, as it was in ample supply at the store. Never had to pretend my car was anything other than a big go-kart cause the transmission was always automatic. And with photography, I've never had to worry about exposure or focus or even running out of film because every camera I've personally owned has been digital and did all that for me. It's lead to a life where these sorts of experiences and triumphs were completely wiped from day to day life, as these triumphs were really only a small part of a larger struggle, which is why these problems were overcome in the first place.

A great video. After 20 years, I started taking pictures again on film. In the digital age I could take thousands of photos in a day, but it's only a handful of photos to look at again. I started film again after I was able to visit my family again after a two and a half year break (due to Corona). It's a different feeling when looking at pictures. We chatted about old family photos for hours with just a few framed photos on the table in front of us. Like my father, I now keep a photo album with special moments from travel and everyday life. What better place to tell family and friends about adventures, a small display or a photo album? The photo album is again at the top for us and is looked at much longer and more intensively. And, I was able to use my father's darkroom equipment, which he used to put photos on paper over 50 years ago. He had packed everything neatly and stowed it in the attic. On the plus side, all of his negatives look perfect after 50 years and I doubt my digital shots will survive that long.

Just before the turn of the century, I started a job that took me away from photography. Just after the turn of the century, a change in the family turned me into a caregiver. Eventually, a change in status turned me back to photography, if I wanted that. I had thrown out old 35mm film as expiration dates came, went, and years went by. I bought a Fujifilm E-500 digital camera to see if electronic photography was for me. I did advance to the DSLR, but the "menus nested in/under other menus" and Presbyopia made seeing those options difficult. Plus the idea that "you have to shoot everything RAW and spend hours in Adobe Lightroom to make it all perfect." I'm overdue for a vision test and Trifocals, so maybe Ye Olde Leica IIIa can come out of storage. (I kept to the "make each frame count" mantra even with large capacity storage chips.)

Really great video. What got me into photography was when my uncle gave me my grandfather's Zenit EM last year coz I like 'old stuff' and I decided to give it a try, before then wasn't even into photography in general. I do like that it forces me to think about the photo more and I like the feel of using older cameras. I've also gotten into stereo photography, it's great being able to take photos in 3D. 35mm film really became the dominant format in the 1950s/60s, before then most consumer cameras used roll film, mainly in the 120 and 127 format. There was also the Agfa Karat system which used 35mm in a different shaped cartridge and 126 cartridges which were simpler to load and didn't need rewinding.

Interesting video, very entertaining and thoroughly engaging! I recently shot my first roll of 35mm film sfter 30 odd years, video on my channel. My own personal view why film has seen a resurgence is that a whole generation have missed out on film and have discovered a dusty film camera, either passed down from an older family member or boight 2nd hand from a thrift shop. I think it makes you think about each shot more so than taking a digital camera. It's that curiosity and exploration of a 'new' medium and all the little intricacies that go with taking photos on film. Such as not having an idea what you have captured until you get your prints back from.the developers!⚠️😲😊 Not long ago I went into Max Spielman to buy a film and the lady looked at me like I'd just landed from an alternate universe, she smiled and told me they stopped selling that years ago! But she did mention someone else had been after some film, so I was reassured I wasn't alone in my quest ... Fast forward a few months and they sell film in abundance now, all we need now is the developing side of it to catch up because 3 weeks wait is far too long! I remember most postal services had around a weeks turnaround and most places had an hours service if you paid extra but there were plenty of 'same day' services around back in the day! Well after 30 years I'm enjoying getting back into film after a prolonged journey with digital photography. My only issue is buying these cheap 35mm cameras is becoming quite an 'addiction' ⚠️😲😳😁 I've added your channel, hopefully you'll connect with another retro film photographer?

A lot of folks found out that I had a collection of film cameras, I sold two Canon AE-1 for nearly $500 each as they were in awesome and working condition, I banked more on the lenses. After 2017, that’s when I actually started reusing my film cameras, especially the Minolta X500 and Pentax 645N.

Its quite funny I stumbled accross the film cameras 3 years ago from a simple reason - my grandfather as well as my father both shot, developed and printed their own photos - which led them to capture to moments of their lives. I realized I was 27 and basically had so few pictures of myself from my 20s - sure there were some stupid photos from parties etc. somewhere on Facebook. But it wasnt the same... so I wanted to fix that mistake. Its quite odd I took the film camera on its rise - I would had done it anyway because of one simple fact - I found 2 bags of developed but never printed film rolls from my grandpa shot somewhere in the 50s and 60s. They were not stored that well, yet still - produced perfect pictures. But once the memory card dies because of its age and you do not have any spare copy - you are pretty done for... And also - I dont like that perfect sterile boring look of a digital - sure they are better. But imperfections of the photos is what makes them memorable...

I think it is because of the tactile nature of film. You can now buy really great film cameras super cheap. I'm talking film cameras that cost thousands of dollars when brand new and used professionally for maybe a couple hundred bucks. Film you have to choose your shots because, depending on your roll size, you might only have 24 shots to work with versus digital. Then it costs money to develop the film, meaning you've invested way more than you would with a digital picture by the end of each picture. You have more of an emotional connection. Also, quality-wise, film is still far superior versus digital though digital is getting close.

Let me start by saying I have a lot of respect for photographers that shoot, develop and print their film photos. I also agree with the points about slowing down, and being more thoughtful about the shot. However, I personally don't see much benefit in shooting 35mm film, scanning the negatives and then digitally editing them. The cost of film and processing is high, as is the time spent scanning. Many of the things you mentioned, slowing down, being more thoughtful about the composition and light need to be learned and practiced. A digital camera with an optical viewfinder (X100V, SLR etc) will give you the analog shooting experience, with all of the benefits of shooting digital. I stopped shooting film in the early 2000's, and personally don't want to go back.

I am similar to yourself, found 2 old film cameras at my grandfathers after he passed with undeveloped film, got them developed and I have never looked back.

That was a great video, thanks. The work you put into the video really shows. Your choice of photos really illustrates the beauty of film. Being expensive I only shoot one roll a month but fllm cameras make me slow down, think, and enjoy the moment of taking a photograph more. What is the song starting at 1:30?
