This wouldn’t and doesn’t look out of place at all in Tokyo where it was shot. Using film cameras and shooting film in Japan is surprisingly common, film is still living on with both amateurs and professionals. The store where I used to buy film was the size of any ‘decent’ camera store here in New Zealand and they only sold film, nothing else. I really wonder why film has died out here in New Zealand, it surely doesn’t help when stores are charging $40 for a roll of Ilford 35mm, yes you read that right. It’s really not a positive way to encourage more people to use film again or use it for the first time. I’ve even been told you should buy film from said local store in New Zealand to help support local businesses instead of importing it yourself… Well I would love to but if I do that I’d have to sell my film camera to pay for the film. I love film and the unique look it gives to photographs, I love the little bit of surprise you get when you develop the roll and see what became of the moment you wanted to capture, I’ll keep shooting film until the day I can’t get my hands on another roll.
