As 2012 comes to a close, I wanted to give all of the listeners of the Film Photography Podcast a special holiday treat. And while it’s not a brick of your favorite emulsion, it should come pretty close. This has been a long time coming, but hopefully a resource that, when kept up to date, can help film shooters old and new track the market for film. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you The State of Film, 2013 Edition.
