While most of the world has gone mad for College Basketball we've gone mad for mechanical cameras! These are beauties that may take a battery for their light meters but will work regardless the battery/meter works or not! Such gems as the Nikon F2 Photomic, FM2n, Canon P and the Contaflex Super B. And in the Darkroom we discuss where the idea of Instagram and Hipstamatic images come from all those weird effects, strange colour shifts and what you can do in the film world to get those effects!

As a group of rabid film photographers we've acquired a large number of cameras, but sometimes the cameras we use need a fresh perspective. The gang all chose one of their own cameras then without saying which cameras they had picked drew names, the person's name you drew was the camera you'd use. Sadly one camera had some issues so John speaks on his Kodak Medalist and we also have a special interview with Argentix.ca!
