Wow!
Make is really pouring on the film vibe this morning!
This time, it's a gigantic field camera that was designed to take x-ray film.
Just looking at the video that came with it is so inspiring!

Francois, I hope you don't mind, but I edited your original post to include the video clip in the body.

A random update (and totally unconnected): My dad sent me this today from the New Orleans Times Picayune. He said it reminded him of me.

How sweet.
