Welcome to the home of the Camerosity Podcast, the world’s first open source film photography podcast.  Unlike other film photography podcasts where the hosts get to decide what’s talked about, the Camerosity Podcast relies on live callers such as yourself.

Each episode is recorded (usually) every other Monday evening, and prior to the recording, we post a link for anyone to join in the show to ask questions or share your latest pick ups.  Show announcements and all previous shows are listed below, but can also be found on our official Facebook and Instagram pages:

We look forward to hearing from you!

Episode 99: Sanibel Island

For the past several episodes, the Camerosity Podcast has covered a wide range of topics from tiny digital TLRs, to Exaktas, to death and while these were all riveting conversations, we realized it had been a while since the hosts could just talk about what we’ve been up to.  Camera…
