BLM Office donates Cameras to SFCC Photography

SFCC Photography received a donation of ten 35mm film cameras from the Spokane district office of the Bureau of Land Management. This donation will make it much easier for students who already own digital cameras because they will not have to buy another film camera while taking the intro to photography class that still uses black and white film to teach the history and fundamentals of photography. In fact, black and white film photography is experiencing a renaissance in popularity and every major film process since the invention of photography is still practiced today.
