In the words of the presenter, "Who cares about taking pictures on film? I always hated carrying 40 pounds of camera and junk into the field ... now I can carry my digital camera, or my film camera, and have all the advantages they present, make my contact negatives up to any size I want, and get the kind of image qualities and durability I want."
He forgot to mention his work is degraded to the resolution and detail capturing ability of small format digital or film, not large format film. Personally, I wonder what sort of image qualities he wants. If small format film or digital makes him happy, he would probably be happy with a wide body Epson, and could forget all about the darkroom.
