Unrelated to film/digital, I would love to see the final video from the food shoot!

I still shoot some film. For me it has a lot to do with the process. I enjoy working in the darkroom. I have both a 35mm rangefinder and a 4×5 view camera. The rangefinder is great because it’s small, discreet, and you don’t have to dig through menu options to get at the manual exposure controls the way you do with most compact digital cameras. On the other hand shooting with a large format camera slows things down to the point where you think about every detail involved in exposing each sheet.

sooo glad this is addressed film will never die 35mm is too popular and 120 digital is too expensive and they dont make a 5×4 sensor yet people get better results from film because they thing about the shot more because it cant erase
great wednesday rundown

Film has a way of focusing me, and I prefer bellows to digital perspective correction, so I use it for outdoor photography primarily. I think that the investment in the film somehow calls me to invest more in each shot

@ Kyle. An EOS 85mm f1.8 is as fancy as it gets. 8-D

@Killer Images,

@Killer Images, well said.
I definitely have mine ready when the apocalypse strikes :)

On another note, if you shoot film just to be trendy and cool and don’t get the best possible results then you’re a hipster. If you shoot film because it makes your images better, then by all means, shoot film.
