How many of you are entirely film

All film
I figure in this Life I will do it while its still available
And when it's not there's always Digital

my iPhone for classified RFf shots ...😀
 
Besides my snaps with GRDIII I shoot mostly 6x6 and some (less than I would like to) 4x5". I am trying to figure out whether I should go to 35mm as well or whether I am too snobbish for that ...


... I really need to go out and shoot, but I have to work on our apartment instead for couple weeks more while the spring is passing by ... 🙁

Yeah, that's my take. I don't have deadlines or clients. Film does what I need and want it to do. The less they make, the more I'm inclined to use it while I can.

Digital will always be there when I can't find film or when I don't enjoy the process anymore.
 
I'm with Helen and Mike. All film, except for notebook shots with the iPhone or obsolete pocket digicam (useful for matching plumbing parts on trips to the hardware store, and photographing crimes in progress). Have never made a print from digital, nor inkjet print from a scanned negative, despite having recently upgraded to running water and electricity in my home.
 
I am moving that way, but can't give up digital entirely just yet. Was all digital in 2008-09, then had a relapse. At the moment I have an X100 and a D700 (D700 is used for work only: weddings, sports, etc), and a range of 35 and 120 cameras that I use for pleasure. The X100 goes on vacation with me but it is my backup camera when it does. Use my iPhone for quick snaps.

I am moving toward being all film again soon...
 
I'm surprised at the number of 100% film shooters on this thread. Though I suspect it is not a fair sampling since those that shoot primarily digital probably won't have clicked the thread?
 
I have to be impressed by anyone (so far 7.5% of people who viewed this thread) shooting close to 100% film today.
I have tried a few times to "go back" to film, and I just can't do it.
Too hard.
I tip my hat to you folks for carrying it on.
 
I'd quite like to be entirely film but I earn a meager amount by shooting digitally with a D700 for an educational institution. This means that I need to show some committment to digital outside of that work environment to be able to stay in touch with it.

It's a bit of a catch 22 situation really!
 
I sorta wish I could stop shooting film. It's a pain in the ass frankly but I just don't get excited about using digital cameras or looking at my results. They are both lacking something essential to why I started shooting in the first place.

However, all my post processing and printing is digital. You couldn't pay me to get back in the darkroom. I always found it pure drudgery.
 
All film...except for shots taken with my cell phone for posting on facebook...right now I'm doing a series of shots of our backyard...I'll add photos once or twice a week...

All film all the time...and mostly B&W...
