There seems to be a solutions abrewing!

This looks amazing, and is something that I feel will be of massive interest! There are even updates now so you can change the sensor yourself to upgrade if you wish and you can shoot in RAW!

It is currently on a Crown Funding site as he is trying to fund it.

Looks like an amazing idea and very simplistic!

There is no live view and no preview, so it is like using actual film, without the cost!

What do you guys think? Would you be interested in a product like this?

I saw this a while ago.
It's a good concept, but it's a bit of a niche market: people with film cameras who want to use them to make digital photos.
If I had a suitably vintage film camera, I would probably want to shoot it with film, not put a digital pod in it.

He's got a long way to go in 20 days to reach his £199,000 target.

I know, I really hope he does it though! I have film cameras at home that I have bought to use the lenses and kept, I cannot afford to shoot film with them for fun, but I don't have a dark room either, I think I would have one of these though, I could use my old Zenit and my Praktica!
