Only applies to the small portion of the population that enjoys the process. I could never appreciate digital cameras. Take a bunch of shots , then go home and filter those shots for the good ones, then adjust the color of those shots. No thanks, not my cup of tea.
Funny enough I enjoy shooting film over digital. A lot less work and decision to be made.
- baz00 3y agoI shoot film as well. It's definitely not less work but it is enjoyable. As for convenience, the DSLRs can be tethered to your phone now. I shoot on mine and they go to Apple Photos.
- infecto 3y agoFor myself at least there is less mental load shooting film compared to digital. I am not taking multiple shots of the same thing generally and I don't develop the film myself. Historically the two things I did not like about digital was too many photos to review and having to work on each photo at home. There is something about not having the choice of which shot to pick and how to adjust the colors that is nice. I have been interested in some of the micro 4/3 cameras that have prebuilt filters in them but I think film for me is king if I have a camera.
- baz00 3y agoYou can run a digital camera like that too. I am more interested in composition than camera set up and spend most of my time shooting in aperture priority. At best I'll tweak the white balance but the camera mostly just deals with that for me. I take few photos. I spent 16 days on a trek recently and took about 50 photos in total.
- BlueTemplar 3y agoPhone cameras are digital cameras too.
- infecto 3y agoOk let me clarify for you. In this context I am talking about point-and-shoot cameras, bridge cameras, DSLRs and mirrorless. Everything but a phone camera.
