Got Film?
I've been thinking a lot recently about how I used to shoot. Tri-X, available light, fast lenses, or pushing the film in development. I think digital technology has made too many photographers sloppy. Everything is automatic, from exposure to focusing to bracketing to zoom lenses. Without the cost of film, it's all too easy to take shot after shot and hope you've got something that you can "correct" in Photoshop later. So today I bought some batteries and a roll of film and loaded up my Nikon F5. I'll shot with just a 50mm lens. I'll get the film processed and scan the negatives. I'm hoping that this will force me to be careful and more considerate when shooting.
