The Death of Photography (Electronic book text)

This edition contains fewer Holga and Pinhole pictures than the deluxe coffee table edition. It has 70 pages rather than 110, although all of the text is present and has not been abridged. The popular trend in the photographic press and industry is to declare the death of film photography. Unless the photographer uses digital their work is not worth the time of day. Starting out as a set of frank discussions between colleagues over wine and steak during a trying winter, this book looks at the options that are open to the artistic photographer and why film is still a viable option for many photographers who don't want to be left behind in the race to go digital. The Death of Photography uses photographs from the plastic Holga Toy Camera and the Zero 2000 pinhole camera to demonstrate what can be achieved using film, home processing and low tech cameras.
