bhop said:To me digital is a pain in the ass.. mostly because it takes too much work to make it look like film. I think the things people are saying they hate about film are things I love about it. I like developing my film, it's relaxing. I like the surprises when I see a pic that I don't remember taking. I also can't afford a digital Leica so if I want to shoot a rangefinder, I have to use film.. *shrug
That said, I don't think i'd sell my digital cameras. I mean, my D300 hardly ever gets used. I literally haven't touched it in months, but I keep it around because sometimes I get asked to shoot events for my friend's car site and he wants a lot of shots of the race cars, although, I usually shoot a roll or two of film for myself through my F100. Also, sometimes I just need a quick shot to post online or something. I also use my X100 often when I get lazy or if the lighting isn't good.
Honestly, I've been a film die-hard for a long time, but lately i've been feeling lazy, or haven't had the time for scanning. The newer FX sensors look pretty good, if only I could afford a D4..
Dont do it
