In a world of megabytes and 20-frames-per-second bursts, choosing to shoot with a roll of film is not a step back in time on the contrary, it is an act of creative rebellion. Switching to analog today is not a nostalgic choice, but something much more profound here is why you should consider buying an analog camera and shooting on film. For those accustomed to digital, analog represents a new way of photographing. While digital is about abundance and post-production, analog is about subtraction.
