Film is the other way
Anti-digital propaganda. Get real. These folks are in denial.
A slick promo for Ilford.
The give away was the last sentence, I'm paraphrasing, "No digital print has ever been made that's as good as a sliver print"
Look, I spend many hours making sliver prints and I also get extraordinary results with ink-jet. They're just different. I've been told I am a master (silver) printer, though I don't print the work of others. This video had some promise but then it got all sappy, touchy-feely, and commercial. Too bad. I still might show the first part, when he's in the darkroom, to my silver-printing students.
haha you're breaking me up! I suggest you make a video for us to critique. I'd love to see your prints.

Erik,
Why do you keep posting your photos in a thread related to Robin Bell?

Well it was supposed to be a discussion about Robin and it turned into a discussion about Erik...

Let's start a thread in W/NW about silver gelatin prints.

I lost my darkroom in a fire about six months ago, this video has made me even more determined to rebuild and start my own printing again. Loved every second of it, many thanks for sharing.

This video is set to "private" when I try to play it. Is anyone else having this problem? I'd really like to watch it.

The filmmaker took it down to finish it.

Ah. Well, I guess I'll just have to twiddle my thumbs and wait.
