I want film experience. Except i find it hard to integrate film into my workflow :(

I may go all-film this summer just for the experience.


Maybe don't integrate it into your workflow, but definitely take a camera out and about and play around with it. If you do studio stuff, play with film there as well, you'd be surprised at the quality if low ISO slides, and general black and white negatives.

Thats true. I already have that laziness.

True, I just like the part about being able to edit without having to go through scanning and all that.


Take shots with the aim of not having to edit them afterwards! Obviously post isn't bad, but you need to make the most of your photos so you're not stuck in front of a computer afterwards correcting them.

I think I'll do 100% B+W film.

Make sure you can find a proper place to develop it, unless you want to give dev a go yourself. C41 process films like Kodak's BW400CN aren't bad, but they can't beat the ultra smooth grain of a film like Ilford's Delta 100.

I correct just about every photo, even if its just slightly :lol: Thats why I only shoot in RAW. Well that and it just looks better.

Random thing, why the hell is it so hard to find (cheap) 10x10 frames? Getting quite annoyed.
