Many of you are probably acquainted with the British police procedural TV show, MIDSOMER MURDERS. Tonight I watched a 2009 episode, "Picture of Innocence". The plot is centered on a division within the photographic community in a small British village between the film guys and the digital folks. All I can say is that the British seem to take these disagreements a bit more viscerally than we do in the US!


One of the photographers uses a Weston Master V light meter and a 2.8F Rolleiflex TLR. He ends up being strangled with the cord on the Master V!

This is a highly recommended episode, only recently released on DVD. Lots of good camera gear in the background, and they even have some darkroom scenes.
