I simply love film

[gavinlg]

Aww sheeeesh... I just posted a whole lot in the "anything nature" forum that would do great in this one.... Perhaps I'll just post some of those, and some new ones huh? The examples in this thread are all amazingly beautiful I just can't help it.

Surprisingly superb canon fd 50 f1.8 and gorgeous light

I have a multitude of excellent digital gear and beautiful lenses. However, when I take photos of moments and places and things I really want to remember, it's always film. I don't carry a digital camera on me unless I'm shooting something. A film camera always resides in my every day bag, with a few rolls of film. I've always been and always will be fascinated and captivated at the colors and texture and quality that a good film puts out, the feeling of using a beautifully constructed manual camera, and also the security of having a physical negative rather than a piece of digital data.

A perfect photo isn't always the perfect photo. That's why we're still using film.

Just a couple of grab shots to see what Portra NC and Agfa Ultra could do.
The wide shot is F5 17-35 2.8 Portra NC.
The Bike is F3/T with Zeiss 50 1.4 and it was a very overcast ugly day, but it came out ok.

After looking at all these film images (even including mine), I'm so happy film is still around. Film hasn't, luckily, pass on.

Yashica 124G + Fuji NPH 400 (or was it 160?)

Leica M6+50 cron + NPH 400

ywenz--the grain, tonality, and saturation scream nph 400 in those photos. Oh, and so does the side of the film. 🙂 Some great photos here.
