- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos OK to edit
My oldest camera is still capable of producing photographs even at nearly 80 years old.
Even if they stop producing film I would be able to use my 5x4 camera to produce analogue photographs using homemade materials. It might take a lot of effort but I know I can do it. Being a chemist I could probably create my own film as well - though I'm sure it wouldn't be as good as the mass produced stuff.
I have used a 10 year old digital camera, but I rather doubt any digital camera will still be working by the time it's as old as my box brownie.
Film is actually making a comeback despite the advantages of digital, because people like using it.
