I don’t know man, I started on 35mm, then went to digital, and then graduated to “whatever shitphone is in my pocket”. Film definitely has a different feel to it, though I don’t know that it’s necessarily better or worse. Just different.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad some folks are keeping film alive. I just don’t find it to be that much better.
Oh no I totally get that! I just meant when I’m going for an older feeling photo with a bit of nostalgia factor to it I’ve found that using real film gets the look that I’m going for better, I should’ve been more specific. It’s all subjective really but I’ve also taken thousands of photos on different digital cameras and smartphones as well, they’re objectively cheaper and more convenient for sure, but I don’t think one is better or worse than the other.
