To uptheyingyang:

The picture you posted is nice, its fine, its great, but the moment I saw it, the first thing I thought of, was hey, that is a digital camera picture.

Whatever the case, there is something about film (especially the specialty film types like portra) that digital cams simply are not able to emulate just yet.


Yes, I know there are professionals that do use the digital for print and such (hey, like I said I use the D100 also) but my core point is you cannot achive that film quality without hitting photoshop, airbrushing, and doing all the color & image changes to make it look like film. And even then it still does not have the same feel.

I switched to the D100 mostly because of efficiency, cost, and the fact that scanning from 35mm negs made me lose some image quality in the transfer process, and members noticed that. The D100 I can get those 3000x2000 pixel images sharp & clear. But it aint film.
