Default Re: Film need NOT be dead - it's up to you!

I shot film for years until I got my first decent digicam in 1999. Since then I 'went digital' with abandon, even becoming an expert with Photoshop. Then about 2 years ago, I gave it all up, and went back to film, because I just didn't seem to be going anywhere with my digital photography.

I am much more at home with film. I don't want to talk anyone else into using film, it's probably not for them. But I find that the film medium is much more expressive than digital, where I am much less constrained, and therefore less creative. That an I just love the little blobs and crescents I get on my negatives out of nowhere. They're like presents!

ps, I still do use digital cameras, but only when I get paid to.
