Reply To: Getting a new camera- digital vs film

[monkeybort]

I love film, i love the darkroom, i love printing, i love grain, i love crystal clear slides….i pretty much love everything to do with film.

that said, i haven’t touched my film body since i got my 20d. digital is just so easy and convenient. you never have to worry about running out of film in the middle of a shoot/sequence/event, you can edit on-site if you need to, everything you shoot in color can easily be converted to b/w….

i DO miss some of the experimental aspects of film – doing polaroid lifts and such from slides, non-silver printing, etc etc.

but digital is just so dang immediate.

i don’t know if any of this helps, just my $.02
