>>2877248I wouldn't say it has anything specifically to do with the 80's but if you look at that image then one can say film captures light and tone and colour in a way that digital does not. Mostly due to the pixel grid and filtering that is immediately applied to the light presented to the sensor.
Take it back as far as you want with analog photography, and you will find examples that hold details and nuances in them that you don't see with digital. If there is a method to making a digital capture look analog, then the amount of time it would take to achieve such a result would negate the entire convenience factor of digital.
