Where do we stand on film/digital?

[FrankS]

No need for explanations and certainly not debate: let's just vote, and see where the RFF membership stands on this topic.

Here:
63F, Sunny and Fair

(To keep it off the debate floor)

 

[Teuthida]

Professional work 100% digital, personal work 80/20 film.

 

[thirtyfivefifty]

52°F, Partly Cloud/Mostly Cloudy/Fog Advisory

 

[Pete B]

Where's the film-only choice? 😀
Pete 100% analogue (although I could achieve equally poor results with digital)

60 deg. here. Sunny & windy. I need to get a better keyboard, I don't see a degrees symbol on mine.

The Wall Street Journal has a nice article today about the recent increase in vinyl record sales (up 36% last year). Aside from the increased quality compared with CDs, the audiophiles interviewed also prefer vinyl because of its tactile qualities as well as the better cover art. I felt like I was reading a RFF thread, just substitute film for vinyl. But one of the audiophiles admitted that when he/she is doing housework and wants to listen to light music, he/she clips on a MP3 player.

I don't do photography as a job. 99% digital for personal work.

It's sixty two °F and kinda cloudy - filtered sun - some shadows, but very diffuse. Should warm up over the next few hours to 70°F or so.



ps, 50/50

Wife says it's not a keyboard I need but a series of codes. Lot's to learn still about this computer stuff.:bang:

I'm amazed at photographers like Tom A who can walk outside & can make camera settings according to conditions. Filtered sun reminded me of this. 🙂

on a recent trip to West Africa, I took 2200 shots with 4 digital cameras, and 350 shots with 3 film cameras

Plan is to finally this year make a buck off my photography, starting as a 'traditional portrait photographer'.

Got the printer ready to do some home printing, have an assignment out to have a logo designed, have an assignment out for a newly-designed website, this is gonna be it.

So, mainly film for professional, mainly film for hobby.

 

[The Standard Deviant]

How many good ones in there?

--erm, Buzzardkid replied before me. That was meant to be addressed to bowieknife!

 

[valdas]

only film. wait... iphone sometimes

 

[Peter^]

Its about 0 C here, and drizzly rain/snow. Ugh.

I am not professional, but I am in marketing and work with a lot professionals who do mostly product and advertisement photography. I just can't imagine using film nowdays in that kind of setting.

 

[back alley]

i am not a professional...

i am an animal!


...with apologies to Joseph Merrick...

 

[starless]

not mostly, ONLY film for both.

 

[kshapero]
