This is not what I expected to see! I love it. Great idea and setup. I think you may hear some passionate arguments though.....

Not what I expected either - stand by for some 'discussions'?

Great title though - get's you thinking!

End of an Era. I stopped shooting film a year ago.

I stopped shooting film about a year ago as well. I still have my old EOS RebelX S and have often considered taking it alongside my Digital Rebel and doing an experimental shoot. Take the same shots at the same settings and same lenses and see which one produces the better final result.

That would be a GREAT idea. I for one, would love to see the results

Excellent shot and title. Good job

Unless you are doing the D&P yourself and are as proficient in the darkroom as you are with PS it would be a pointless comparison.

Even if you went with a jpg directly from the camera you would still be making a comparison with how well the film was D&P'd

Digital is much more simpler and cheaper in the long run. But, I honestly think film will not be going anywhere anytime soon. 10 years from now you will still be able to get film just about anywhere.

But digital is king!

This was not what I expected either but I like it. Great set-up. I don't know about 10 years from now but I do know that buying good film means a trip to the camera shop these days. And buying any flim other than 35mm is a trip to the camera shop. I don't shoot slides any more because of difficulty sharing. I also know I have about 10 rolls of film to shoot yet so the film cameras will have to stay in the bag for a while. I expect I'll soon write off the unexposed film as just too costly to process. I do like not having to change film every 36 shots and being able to adjust ISO on the fly is wonderful.

I like the shot !

I hope its not going away since I just bought a film backup for when my 300D goes on the fritz again ;)
