film is better.

reznap · Feb 10, 2011

I don't think these photos are great, I just seem to like shooting film more than digital. It's such a slower and more thought-out process for me, and the extra dynamic range is nice. Also, seeing a photo for the first time a month or two after I took it is just fun for me. Here's a few taken with a Nikon FE2, 50mm f/1.4 lens and Fuji Superia Reala 100 film. Developed at the local lab. I straightened a few of them in photoshop (they were like, 3 degrees off but it bugged me) but that's about it other than a resize.

All but #1 were taken at Hillcrest Hospital in Mayfield, Ohio. I spent some time (like a whole week) there with a family member recently (no worries though, they're ok now).

Thanks for looking! Mainly just sharing since I rarely post photos anymore, but all comments & questions are welcomed.

im not saying it is better or its not, i just think its preference.

I like #2 and 3 the last one is nice, but the others have well issues.

^ Well, #2 is the only one I consider to be any good in this set - the crooked green-hued FL light makes it imo. I took a bunch of photos of my daughter too that were kinda nice, but I'm trying to post different stuff here since the forum is saturated with kid photos. I know a few of them are pretty boring, I was trying to be artistic.. (stop laughing

).

agree with one of the above cmts, its all about "preference".

however, my photo professor said that the photo quality from the best digital lens on the most expensive digital camera is still not as good as the one from FILM camera!!!
