1. duplicate photos fixer pro10/13/2023 ![]() ![]() And would I even look at that one good photo again? No, it'd stay on the device to languish with the other photos I took in the heat of the moment that never get looked at again. Before I got in to film again I would happily snap away on my digital camera and I would get maybe 1 good photo and the rest would be garbage. Plus, given you have 36 chances to get a photo right it forces you to look at something and decide if it's worth it. But given we live a life of being in a rush and having instant gratification, film photography offers something different. Only reason I scan them is because I don't have enough room for a dark room, but if I did I would probably do that as well. Then stick them in the scanner while taking a sneak peak of your shots looking at the negatives. Load the film in to the container, mix the developer, swirl it at set intervals (or just leave it for 1 hour for interesting results), stop bath, rinse, leave them to dry. Don't get me wrong, I whip my iPhone out to take a photo if I have to, but if I am on holiday or just fancy a day of taking photos, I will use film. I've not used a digital camera since for serious photography. Until 4 years ago, where I bought a cheap russian 35mm camera and a roll of Ilford XP2 (black and white, but can be developed with the colour process). Then digital cameras happened and I didn't bother with film. I don't have a grey beard, but I remember having to go to Boots with a disposable camera or a roll of 35mm (actually my first film camera was a disc format!) and handing it in, waiting days to get it back. ![]()
