The ugly end of the equation are the film users that are almost militaristic in their approach, trying to convince everyone else that film is the way to go and that digital is inferior and just a fad. I am convinced that many of them are objecting to digital photography because it is new to them and that they don't have the knowledge to work with it. If they do take any shots with a digital camera, many expect to mysteriously end up with perfect photographs, without any further input. If that doesn't materialize, and it seldom does, then film of course is way better, all the while ignoring the fact that no analog photography has ever produced an image without fuhrer, and often substantial input. Of course if you take to have your film developed at a drug store, you don't have to worry about that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1320126156594375642.post-71237640842753212017-12-29T10:50:01.996-06:002017-12-29T10:50:01.996-06:00The argument in favor of film always seem to be th...The argument in favor of film always seem to be the same. We hear about the soul, the aesthetics, character and similar intangible things. Some people even go as far as predicting film on the rise and surpassing digital photography. I have no problem with people shooting film. What I object to is that many film shooters are trying to ram down the use of film down the throats of people that have left analog photography.

I work only digitally. That, however, does not mean that I do not appreciate film. I simply don't like to take the time any longer that is necessary to develop and print (or scan) negatives and transparencies.LEICA Barnack Berek Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055435560407011075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1320126156594375642.post-77694681848703935042017-12-28T11:44:53.356-06:002017-12-28T11:44:53.356-06:00I argue that in fact already '6 or 7 mpx are s...I argue that in fact already '6 or 7 mpx are substantially higher in definition to the classic film 135mm. On this we agree. On HST and Pan-STARRS are mounted ccd for astronomical use. if you have not opted for cmos will have their reasons ... The lack "soul" of the sensor and 'linked to the nature of the raw files that must collect the most information in a "neutral" to allow then the most' ample opportunity 'to obtain quality images' .... But to get this often serve hour work PC. I do not make matters any better / worse. I think everyone works with the means that more 'the own pace. I just think some comparisons leave the time they are ... I work in both analog and digital, but I choose to use the technique based on the type of photos that I have to do. Different techniques for different emotions. Professionally work only in digital. For more photos and my personal use almost exclusively analog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1320126156594375642.post-90070861667761966812017-12-28T11:43:49.337-06:002017-12-28T11:43:49.337-06:00Of course the film format does make a difference. ...Of course the film format does make a difference. Since the majority of high end cameras do use full frame sensors (24x36mm), I concentrated this comparison on those. Besides, to compare a full frame sensor to Medium format film is just as ridiculous as comparing 35mm film to medium or large format film. As for sensors not having the "soul" of film is nothing tangible, it is merely a personal opinion, just like the opinions claiming that CCD sensors are superior to CMOS sensors. Finally, one of the photography magazines did a comparison test a while ago between the Leica S2 and a Mamiya RB 67 loaded with ISO 100 film. The results were not even close; the Leica S2 rendered substantially better results.LEICA Barnack Berek Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055435560407011075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1320126156594375642.post-81739685303739928082017-12-28T11:42:47.878-06:002017-12-28T11:42:47.878-06:00Here we talk about digital camera high range, with...Here we talk about digital camera high range, with sensors and optics at the top of what the market offers. I think it depends very much on the film format. With an average size of Hasselblad and Zeiss optics (to stay in the top range) there is no sensor that takes ... If then we go to the optical bench with large slabs, becomes impossible any comparison with digital. In 35 mm already 6 or 7 megapixel cmos or ccd have more detail (slightly above the CCD, although slower and energy-hungry) ... In any case also depends greatly on the film speed and the accuracy of the development. I would not go beyond certain comparisons. For now though sensors with the same "soul" of a film I do not see.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
