A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Why all of sudden cameras , especially the mediocre crappy budget cameras from the 2000s & 2010s have become popular again. I'm seeing my Instagram and YouTube feed being flooded with reels and shorts about 'this 20 usd camera takes film like photos'.

So what's next , Nokia era phone cameras being popular again.

Because they’re fun. Honestly this is the answer to so many questions lol. Why use a real camera when an iPhone is good enough? Because they’re fun. Why use film when digital is better? Because it’s fun. Why paint a fucking Picture when you can just photograph it? Because it’s fun.
