I came back to shooting film three years ago in 2017. For the previous fifteen years I had been shooting digital with a range of cameras, the last one being the Fuji X-T1, which I still use randomly or for special assignments. It is a fine, elegant and reliable machine and the results I was […]

My return to film: Andrew Whitehurst
To describe my return to film as long-awaited is to over-sell it; I had only been away for a handful of years.

My return to film was not a definite decision I made one day, but more of an evolvement of my feeling towards photography.

My return to film: Jake Bryant
I feel lucky to have grown up with film being my only option to create a photograph. It wasn’t until I travelled through India in 1992, that the world through a viewfinder opened up to me.
My Return to Film: Todd Reed
In a high tech digital age, why have I chosen to go back to an older, somewhat archaic process of shooting film?
In a simple statement – “It feeds my soul”
For some strange reason, I have never been on
My return to film: Ric Donato
When I talk or correspond with others about photography I do my best not to talk gear specs, instead directing discussion towards techniques with gear, usage, and other photographic concepts.
Talking about which camera is better, whistles and bells is
