Film scanners?

wrote: Film scanning is dead. film is dead. Really wrong. really right. Are you accusing me of necromancy? you weren't a part of this thread until now. film use may not be zero, but it's close to it and getting closer every day. Quite true. It's called a niche market. Nothing wrong with it and no need to get tragic with the "dead" thing. it's a common expression which does not mean completely zero. film sales have dramatically dropped off (kodak filed for bankruptcy, polaroid is just a name), many films are no longer made (kodachrome being the prime example), film cameras are no longer made (with very rare exception and very, very few are sold) and very few places to process film remain. True. Is that the definition of "dead" where you come from? Because here it's called a niche market. And quite active too! you agree film is on its way out yet you say it's active? strange. digital blows away film in every respect, although it can be downgraded to look exactly like film for those who want that effect. Akshally, completely wrong... The only aspect where digital blows away film is in sensitivity- or ISO, if you prefer that terminology. nope. digital blows away film in *every* metric. Everything else? Nup. PArticularly in B&W, Yes, folks still use that. In both digital and film! wrong. Of course, I'd advise you to learn a little bit about scanning and film before opening your trap again... take your own advice. you are completely wrong. you're just another delusional film fanboi who refuses to accept that the outdated technology has been surpassed. |
