The Biggest Scam in Film Photography

Next to me in my desk is a drawer. Inside that drawer is a box. The box's contents are Instax, Polaroid, and Instant film images I've made since I started the Phoblographer 16 years ago. I can officially say that I've made some of those images before my friends' children were born. Lots of memories come to mind when I ponder on what's in that box specifically and I can tell you stories about pretty much every single image. But the truth is that I can do that with pretty much all of my digital images too. This is why I'm so torn on instant film and I think it's been the biggest scam in film photography.
