I felt this way about photography for years. Got into it in middle school and kept climbing the gear ladder. Shortly after getting a Sony A7III, I purchased a cheap film SLR and fell in love with it.

Now, my favorite camera is a 1980s film point and shoot that cost me £30. I take it everywhere. Haven’t used the Sony in a while. It’s not about the gear, it’s about the feeling you get from using it.

I think severe constraints breed creativity. If your camera can do everything, what’s left for you to do?

Really enjoyed this. Thanks for writing it.
