If you really want to freak people out, next time, show up with a folding camera.  If they ask say, Digital? Uhm, yes, it is.  I use one of my digits to shoot the shutter.

HAHAHAHAHAHahahahahahahaha That's great.  
 
My doctor keeps offering me a digital, but I nicely decline and explain I'm very happy with my old analog.

Good news from Fujifilm, September 2009.
 
Fujifilm re-think Pro 800Z withdrawal
Due to demand from its customers, Fujifilm Professional has decided to continue production of Fujicolor Pro 800Z. It was announced recently that the company was t

Lets hope that all those customer demands actually result in film stock moving off the distributor's shelves. In many other instances where there has been an intimation of 'service' withdrawal, all those customer demands have turned out to be noth

For E6 processing in Britain I can recommend Metro Colour Labs, www.metrocolourlab.com. Fast turn around and excellent quality. Perhaps a little pricey.

The above mentioned Fuji lab in Leeds does very good work - almost on my doorstep!

Hey, I'm getting in on this demise of film thing a bit late. There's one thrill about film I was reminded of last week. No digital photographic pretender will ever get the rush of dropping the back off the old Contax only to discover he hasn't rew

No just old photogrpahers are. Film is still alive n well... just go over to APUG n see for yourself.

[Harryrag]

Yep, alive, as alive as one can be under exclusive living conditions. Very interesting, though, thank you for the info.

This thread was interesting...and although it has died out, film still has not. I'm still shooting film, and now, digital as well. I'm as likely to be out taking pictures with a Kodak 120 brownie, or a Yashicamat 124 G, or a Pentax Spotmatic

Funny this thread came back to life. I was talking to my son last week about this. He's upgraded to an expensive Mach someting Cannon digital n has been popping off shots like a bag of MnMs falling on a glass table.  
 
So I ask him are your picture

[Glenn]

Sorry but that argument does not wash, why should you need to use digital in a more undisciplined way than film? The average 'frame' count is no different on my M6, to that on the M8 or M9 when I use both media on assignment.

[Paul Ron]

My post wasn't an argument, it's an opinion, a discussion I had with my son who does both film n digital for business n pleasure. A personal experiance.  
 
So whether it washes or not is irrelevent, it's the reality of what was said that

One of the most ridiculous and telling comments I heard from a digital shooter was with digital photography, quantity means quality, meaning that the more you shoot, the more chance you have of getting a keeper. This is like giving a soldier a machi
