While I spend most of my time writing about analogue film cameras, I still shoot digital mirrorless for professional work. The Nikon Z6 has long been my workhorse main camera, and when the Z6 III came out I was frustrated that most of the comparisons being made were with expensive contemporary cameras like the Z8 […]
Read More...Updated: Polaroid and Instax Buying Guides
Just in time for the 2024 holiday season, I’ve overhauled and updated both my buying guides for Polaroid and Fuji Instax cameras. There’s been a lot of changes over the past few years, and many of my past favs have been replaced and updated. Isn’t it exciting that so much brand new stuff is still […]
Read More...New: Fuji Instax Wide 400 Review
I’ve had this Fuji Instax Wide 400 sitting on my dining room table for what seems like ages, but I finally got the review done just in time for the holiday shopping season! Unfortunately, this camera is unlikely to make too many lists, because it’s just a freakin’ weird guy. Fuji Instax Wide is a […]
Read More...New: All About the Nikon N80
The Nikon N80 is one of the last great consumer 35mm SLRs Nikon ever made, and today it stands as one of the best lightweight film bodies you can find for the F mount system. I’ve shot several rolls on my N80 over the summer, and I’m back to report on my results with a […]
Read More...Nikon N80 Custom Settings Menu Virtual Pocket Guide
Like ancient VCR menus of yore, the Nikon N80 requires having a reference guide to understand what the heck its custom settings are. You access the custom settings by switching the top PSAM dial to the CSM spot, then using the front and real dials to change menu items and the status of each of […]

Sticky rubber. It’s one of the worst aspects of dealing with aging electronics. It’s why Dank Pods has to wear gloves when going on a lucky dip. And old photo gear has loads of rubber on it, all of it just waiting to turn into gross goo as it ages. It might feel completely random, […]
Read More...New Video: Instax Mini 12 vs 99
It’s the battle of the little giants, pitting Fuji’s most expensive and cheapest Instax Mini cameras against each other. Both the Instax Mini 12 and Mini 99 are great cameras, so how do you choose which is the right one for you? I go into all the details in this video, but if you’re hungry […]
Read More...New: Instax Mini 99 and Polaroid Impulse Not-AF Reviews
We got two new camera reviews up for you to check out! On the vintage Polaroid side of things we have a comparison between the legendary Impulse AF and it’s slacker twin brother the Impulse… not AF. As you can see in the above comparison, there are certainly differences in certain situations, but the Impulse […]
Read More...How to Fix a Broken Nikon F100 Door Latch
The plastic latch on the Nikon F100 door is notoriously fragile. For years I’ve had an extra Nikon F100 sitting a drawer after the latch snapped during a shoot. I couldn’t figure out how to repair the door to keep it closed. Sure, you could tape it shut, but that’s a recipe for disaster (and […]
Read More...New: All About the Instax SQ40
Now that it is Fuji’s ‘flagship’ Instax Square camera in North America, I’ve given the SQ40 a full proper review. Unfortunately, it’s just a literal reskin of the slightly cheaper SQ1 camera, and it still doesn’t hold a camera to the discontinued SQ6. If you can get a deal on one it’s a perfectly serviceable […]
