Film Focuses Our Attention
All this digital stuff is fun, but film still looks so much better both technically and artistically.
Technically, a projected Fuji Velvia slide has visibly wider color gamut and contrast range than any print material, computer display or projector.
If all you’re going to do is scan your slides, then sure, shoot digital, but if you look at your images the way they are designed to be seen, the difference is jaw-dropping when done well. Any online comparisons you’ve seen are meaningless because you’re only seeing the comparison on your computer screen, which just can’t duplicate the brightness, contrast and color gamut of a transparency on a light table.
Artistically, shooting a real camera always leads into deeper reflection as we shoot, leading to stronger images.
Snapping away mindlessly with “we can just delete the bad ones” digital leads to thoughtless images, while when we know we have to change film and pay for each shot, the small extra mental effort put into each shot leads to huge improvements in the final images.
I much prefer shooting and the results I get with real cameras as opposed to “digital.”
