Can I put a digital sensor in front of the film in my camera? (Minolta a9/Canon Eos 3)

Hi guys, I really just want to shoot digital photos without having to switch camera bodies all the time! So im thinking about just shoving a digital sensor down against the film, why wouldn’t that work?

Also, wouldn’t that work with Polaroid and medium format cameras too?

Please, I just need a budget option.

Help!? Sprocket holes are too sexy!!!

Sprocket Holes just turn me on…

I figured this out when I first started seeing creamy Instagram art of people’s negatives. They posted them in full scale non cropped and after that I never looked back…
Problem is now when I want to take someone home after a date there is no chance my 200mm collapsible will stand up straight. I’m in shame for months now and it didn’t help imagining sprocket holes instead of the real hole…
I even found myself scavenging the trash of my local lab to find some unused „material“ as it just gets to expensive for me to buy a fresh roll everyday.
I do experiment with a few different formats even as the 35mm holes get too loose after some time. So if anyone got some 16mm film for me that would be great!

I’m Fully Convinced People Just Like Bad Photos

Just saw a 10-photo instagram post of a city in Italy that I’ve personally documented a lot of. Shit had 10k likes and a bunch of verified accounts saying how “fire the set is”.

The poster put an insane blue-green filter over it and took photos of the corners of buildings and sidewalks, effectively the same as if you accidentally hit the shutter button on your iPhone when you’re walking down the road.

It’s like I’m in clown-world. Should I just ditch the principle of taking a photo of “something” and just take a photo of nothing?

TLDR: photoshopped sidewalk photo tonez gets gold medals and my photos get short-bus treatment

Just got this vintage Leica from a Chinese flea market for a bargain, still shaking. What should I shoot first?

My non-sycophantic large language model just told me that I'm the king, does this mean I just discovered the new filmsouping meta?

Trying to open a battery compartment. Any ideas?

So far I've tried using my fingernails, a key, a small screwdriver, a smaller screwdriver, a bottle opener, the back end of a spoon, a different key, the tip of an antique spear, a Diet Coke can ring pull, a coat hanger, a butter knife, my front tooth, the sharp side of a beanbag chair, a six-foot pry bar, a broken retainer found on the floor of a Taco Bell, part of the window-winding mechanism from an AMC Pacer and the pendulum from a cursed clock.

If I had a nickel for every time I had this problem...
