Film scanners?

It's fun. You cannot duplicate the experience or the look with digital. Film has a unique look. It is not better or worse than digital. It is just different. Well of course it's different. But so would two film photos taken of the same subject under the same exact conditions. If one looks *better* than the other to some people, it's merely happenstance, and nothing else. I understand that certain things are fun to some people, and I'm not criticizing anyone who does film. But there are people who keep claiming that film looks better, or that you can achieve looks in film that you can't with digital, and that is the part that makes no sense to me. |
