Hurrah! I'm glad I'm not the only Box Brownie shooter here! I don't shoot as often as when I had access to darkroom facilities, but it is a serious test of ability to compose a picture in a viewfinder the size of a thumbnail. I'm not a particularly good photographer, but much of the increase in skill from "completely pants" has come from the thought it needs to take anything half-decent with a box camera.

Given that there are people who shoot wet collodion still, I reckon film is doomed - it'll be gone in about another century.
