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 61: Pointing and Shooting

It took us a couple of tries. but the Camerosity crew finally managed to put together an episode dedicated to the best selling, widely used, and most accessible type of camera ever, the point and shoot. The great thing about the point and shoot segment, is that apart from being…

Episode 60: The Listener’s Choice Episode

Episode 60: The Listener’s Choice Episode

As we begin episodes numbered in the sixties, the Camerosity crew decided we haven’t heard enough from our listeners, so rather than devote Episode 60 to one specific brand, style, or region of cameras, we decided to put out the call for a Listener’s Choice episode! Messages were plastered all…

Episode 59: Cameras of East Germany

Episode 59: Cameras of East Germany

A couple episodes ago, the gang discussed cameras of the Soviet Union to give some attention to lesser known Soviet cameras, and the histories behind them, so for episode 59, we devoted the entire show to the East German camera industries, primarily those around the Dresden area. There were perhaps…

Episode 58: Yashicas Niccas and More!

Episode 58: Yashicas Niccas and More!

We’ve done a lot of deep dives into specific camera brands here on the Camerosity Podcast, but one brand I’ve been the most excited to do was Yashica.  Some of my earliest acquisitions of film cameras right when I first started collecting were Yashicas, from the wonderful Yashica Electro 35…

Episode 57: Robert Shanebrook’s Kodak Moments

Looking back at past episodes of the show, there are a few memorable ones, not necessarily for anything myself or the other hosts contributed, but rather from some of our esteemed guests.  Of those esteemed guests, one that consistently piles on great information and awesome anecdotes about our hobby is…

Episode 56: Советские Фотоаппараты

Very few episodes of the Camerosity Podcast are recorded without mentioning at least one Soviet camera, or something about the Soviet photo industry.  When deciding what we should discuss in future episodes, it was quite a surprise to the gang and I when we realized we had never devoted an…

Episode 55: Travelling With Cameras and Film

In the first episode of Season 3 of the Camerosity Podcast, the guys and I opened up the call-in lines for the first time since late July and asked everyone who has travelled lately, what their ideal travel cameras are.  When deciding to take some cameras on a trip, what…

We’re back….sorta!

Episode 53: Unobtanium

Episode 53: Unobtanium

We’ve covered a lot of gear on this podcast before.  Some cameras are ones that flew under the radar that deserved some recognition as something worth checking out, others were less common models in which a bit more effort (and cost) were required to add to a collection, but then…

Episode 52: Panorama City

Venturing back into the early days of the Camerosity Podcast, the topic of panoramic cameras came up often on the show, so often that we jokingly referred to ourselves as the widest film photography podcast out there.  As we often do, the gang got distracted in later episodes by various other…

Hot off our 50th episode, the Camerosity Podcast goes back to the roots of our name, exploring the rich history of Eastman Kodak, one of the most influential companies in the photographic world.  You can’t talk about the history of Kodak without George Eastman and what better way to explore…
