Yes, really.



They're mostly used for architectural, still life, and landscape photography; sometimes also for other work (e.g. portraits). While you can typically put a digital back on a view camera now, film is still useful in the field, and (afaik) the image quality from an 8x10 view camera with a good lens is far beyond what any digital camera can provide.

Oh, and apparently there are a couple of wags who are trying to bring Polaroid film back, too...
