For Joust there isn’t another format that can be used to achieve the results he’s looking for. It’s not nostalgia for Joust. He finds himself a middle class amateur photographer, which means he can’t buy a fancy medium format digital camera. Digital photography doesn’t have the range of options that exist within the various combinations of film cameras, according to Joust. He likes digital photography, but it’s not broad enough to replace film. For him it’s another type of emulsion, it gives variation and that’s what he appreciate with film.
