10 Reasons You NEED to Try Film Photography

In this video, I’m giving you 10 reasons why you should try film photography. Whether you shoot digital or you’re just getting started, film can completely change how you see and capture the world.

I’ll be talking about everything from the low entry price of film cameras, improving your skills and understanding of exposure, through to why the feel, imperfections and nostalgia of film are so powerful.

We’ll also dive into the new Kodak Vision3 film stocks which is the same film used to shoot Oppenheimer and countless Hollywood movies, now redesigned with Kodak’s new Anti-Halation Undercoat (AHU) to make it easier than ever to process. I’ll explain how this connects to Cinestill 800T, and why this update could change film photography for everyone.

Along the way I’ll share photos from a day shooting in London with friends, as well as my thoughts on slowing down, experimenting with different film stocks, and rediscovering the joy of photography through film.

If you’re new to film, or just need a reminder of why we fell in love with it in the first place, this one’s for you.
