I’ve done a millennial-in-their-thirties thing and bought a film camera.
The truth is I got bored of the iPhone’s abundance.
Have you ever noticed how when you ask someone to take a photo of your group, say at a restaurant, they take at least 5-10 photos? Repeat this a few times and you can easily end up with close to a thousand photos whilst on a weekend trip. I rarely go back to these photos because there are too many of them.
A film camera forces you to be judicious, to be careful, to be thoughtful, to make decisions about what makes the cut before you take the shot.
There is romance in scarcity.
