Retro is hot with Gen Z

Ed, I am getting the feeling you are really a Gen Z kid. Read this and thought this must be you causing the influence.....

The cameras of Generation Z’s childhoods, seen as outdated and pointless by those who originally owned them, are in vogue again. Young people are reveling in the novelty of an old look, touting digital cameras on TikTok and sharing the photos they produce on Instagram. On TikTok, the hashtag #digitalcamera has 184 million views.

Just wait till they discover the Polaroid camera. Then wait a year or so to see the photos fade away like all of mine have done.

It does have a cool factor Sidd. There’s a lot of videos out there telling people how to do it

Even though it is expensive. A company called Back-Bone has a GoPro Mod that allows you to have a "C-Mount" adaptor on the camera so you can use vintage lenses. With a modified GoPro camera from Back-Bone you can mount C-Mount lenses from old 8mm and 16mm Bolex cameras
