Several passionate arguments with my coworkers notwithstanding, I have no beef with digital cameras. But old-fashioned romantics like me still defend the film medium–sometimes because we feel emotionally attached to it, and other times because it does still have its advantages over digital photography.
In the course of my research at Become, I’ve compiled a list of lesser-known (compared to, say, CNET) but useful websites that have great news, reviews and information on all sorts of film cameras and accessories. Some of these cover digital cameras as well, but I can forgive them for that. And of course don’t forget to try out Become for your film camera questions. (Blatant plug!) Hope you all find these useful, and may the film brotherhood remain united and stubborn.
