If there was a modular M. So i can just upgrade the sensor instead of the whole camera when something better comes up!
Isn't it sad though?
A: On screen, other things being equal, I doubt that most people can identify whether an image is from a film or digital source with more than 50% accuracy.
.
It would have to be a digital camera that could spit out a negative that I would develop so I could manually print it in my darkroom...for me it's the entire process that I enjoy...shooting, developing & printing...
And Yes, I know I can print from a digital file BUT it's not the same...I enjoy mixing the chemicals, seeing the film as it's pulled from the tank and hanging it to dry...watching the image literally develop before me in the dark red room and then presenting this manually handmade print to the subject in the photo...
And you would be wrong as soon as someone posts their original images with a Summarit. There is a reason that black and white film is still used by many in lieu of digital. I use both for different results. The results are as plain as day.🙂
Yes teriffic argument and reflects perfectly what this forum is generally about ... gear!
The image itself being secondary. 🙂
Why is it sad? Because not everyone thinks like you? Maybe we should change the forum to pictureforum.com? There is room here for all discussions, therefore, nothing should be sad.:angel:
Dave, if I ever in the Atlanta area, I'd buy you a drink for the way you handle the "image purists" in this forum 😀
I don't think I would give up film by choice but I also don't dismiss the prospect of this happening at some stage ...
I guess the answer to that question for me is the Nikon D7000. I just sold my D70, D90 and the last of my film cameras (OM1's) for the D7000!
