"What's film"? It's a medium with an unparalleled richness and virtuosity. It is controllable, predictable and part of an historic legacy that spans 2 centuries. It is composed of malleable silver halide particles in B&W and layers of silver in color - not square or rectangular pixels. It has far more potential for personal interpretation than the algorithms developed in Mountain View or Cupertino.
It's a craft that has to be learned over a long period of time in order to make a decision at the point of exposure about the final result after exposure-development-printing.
You will not be sorry to work in film. You will be sorry to use a digital camera like a Gatling Gun.
