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.

I think there is a general interest for ‘classic’ stuff coming back. Almost as if people are getting tired of too much technology. For example: Vinyl records, fountain pens, boardgames, home baking, woodworking…

These are all things that are making a comeback
