... if youre using manual settings then a salute you! :slayer:
but only people that can afford expencive cameras have them. 35mm slrs are far superior anyway. picture quality is far greater than digital even on the highest spec cameras. simply becuase a pixel will never be smaller than a molecule.
plus, the colouring on digital cameras in generaly horrible. fair enough if you want to go and spend thousands you will get a decent colour system but if you take a picture with a digital camera and then the same picture with a film camera, you will notice the difference, digital looks artificial. most people wont notice but i see it side by side every day being a lab technicial, its pretty easy to tell a digital shot from a neg shot, no matter what the quality of the actual photography is
.
digital is too contrasty, and i know alot of people like that but i prefer the softness of film, plus digital is generaly too sharp aswell, and enlarging photos becomes a pain in the arse with digital. you simply cant enlarge to bigger sizes without the photos pixilating, obviously you can use the highest resolution possible but digital has a limit, if you enlarge a neg, it simply smooths out rather than pixilating.
each to there own but the only advantage to digital is that you can see what a picture looks like as youve taken it, but if you know what your doing, you dont need it anyway
