Prefers film… very true in many cases. Without it, I feel no one would ever really learn how to take a photo. Digital has taken over. Everyone is a photographer. Everyone can snap a hundred photos, edit down to 10 photos from the batch, Photoshop to perfection and SHAZAAM! Photographer. I do mostly use digital these days but I learned the honest to goodness old-fashioned way. F-stops + shutter speeds + composition + lighting consideration = mathematical photography genius. When I use the “real” (SLR, not point & shoot) digital camera I still choose to shoot everything manually. Why? Because I know how to do the math. Why make mac and cheese from the box when you know a really kick ass recipe?


P.S. I really could have gone on and on and given many points in pros and cons of both digital versus film in the now age. In fact, I did at first and edited. That post would've been long and boring to most. Being that this is my first post I really just wanted to semi explain my reason for the address. Well, the ultimate truth is I wanted a more "rock and roll" address but the ones I could think of were already taken. Meh. I do say (and stand behind) "prefers film" at least once a week when people ask my profession. Most don't listen though.
