Who's shooting film in 2026, and why is it worth the increasing costs?
Is film photography more “real” than digital? In this Random Photography Show, Joel Alston joins the crew for a deep dive into film vs digital, darkroom printing, home developing tips, and why shooting film feels different. The team covers industry news, watchworthy YouTube, listener image critiques, street portraits on Nikon film cameras, bee macro photography, astro shots with satellite trails, and panoramic camera dreams. Whether you’re a digital shooter curious about film or a seasoned analog photographer, this episode blends philosophy, gear talk, and practical advice.
