Film photography is better due to low sensitivity in dark areas. No one needs to see what is in dark areas most of the time. Just imagine this photo with unnecessary crap in shadows.
It's light that brings to attention the main focus of the scene. Just expose for bright area to cull off crap that tells no story about the scene.
Just look how she is well separated against the background
>>4469575There's already a lot of unnecessary crap.>>4469576Everything here is bright>>4469577It's a headshot against a clear blue skyidk mang sounds like you're cooked
>>4469579Stop doing ganja before posting
>>4469575>>4469576>>4469577these have nothing that couldn't be done with digital what are you talking about? have you ever actually used a digital camera?
>>4469587As a matter of fact I did as early as 2001 or '02
>>4469579>Everything here is brightNope. Plus on digital it would be overblown in several areas.
>>4469579>t. Visually illiterate retard
>>4469599I see you are a man of culture.
>>4469575Film is too much of a hassle for me nowI've shot and developed and scanned so much that it's lost all the appeal of the "process"
>>4469601I'm not saying "shot everything on film". But that film is automatically filtering out stuff that we would not miss normally if we understand how to expose for brightness.
>>4469598What. No it wouldn't, what the fuck are you smoking. ETTR (so don't clip) and bring the gamma curve down, up the black point. It's a low-contrast shot so that's that. Digital wins again so long as you have the slightest idea of how to process.None of these photos posted actually have anything a digital camera couldn't replicate somehow except the grain (grain sims are gay).
>>4469609Dafaq r u on? U did LSD or wut?
>>4469609Can we see and example??
>>4469609>it's low contrast shotR U on crack?
>>4469609See>>4469599
>>4469609Example where? I bet u ave some RAW files you can use for demonstration. Don't you?
>>4469615>>4469613>>4469612>>4469610>fell for the bait award
>>4469619>Im not a complete and utter retard! I was simply BAITING YOU. Cope
>>4469623>everyone named anon is one personYeah im nta bro. Even if it wasn't bait, why feed the trolls?
>>4469624Because its funny to call a retard retarded.
>>4469575Are you sure this is a property of film? It looks more a limitation of the scanner, or maybe the person who scanned it just didn't edit the file properly.
>>4469647yeah, they honestly dont really have a "film vibe" as much as a printed and scanned photo "vibe". you could get a very similiar look by just soft proofing using an icc profile of a somewhat shitty printer/paper
>>4469613The scene isn't low contrast, but the blacks are washed out giving it a low contrast look. I think that's what he means.
>>4469647Film has lower response to shadow and dark regions than digital, and digital goes fuck itself in highlights where film is just fine. Of course you can increase "darkness" of dark in printing (But also in developing). But slide films could produce such dark regions out of the box. Some negative films too. But nowadays you would see that mostly in old black and white formulas like Fomapan.
So...
>>4469577I know exactly where that shot was taken
>>4469648I hurd all ya gotta do to make a piccure look like film is desaturat it and kill the blacks bc digital sensers can haz such bedur dynamic range they capsher 13 stops of evertang HEEEEHAWWWWW
>>4470768What the fuckMeds
>>4470758heyo burtwhich blue grip is closest to tiffany blue? preferably in 9mm, it's for my niece
Film is great in many ways but this is not one of them.
>>4470937This is the sheepshagger, fish and chips eating burt not the deerfucker burgermunching burt. He doesn’t even own a knoife.
>>4469575>film is better because its underexposedWhat?
>>4473324Don't do shrooms before posting
>>4473613That's literally what you're saying. Film is not 'less sensitive to areas with less light'. The only way you would make those areas clipped on film is if you massively underexposed. Film has better dynamic range than most digitals, ergo you're a retard.
>>4473620Yes it has wider range but that range is shifted differently. Dynamic range is a spectrum and has no limits on both sides other than maybe absolute lack of photons on dark side. Film and digital can register only limited range of that spectrum.Digital is king in shadows, film blows digital away in strong light. Deal with it.
>>4473637No clue where you heard this but it's wrong. Film stores more detail in shadows, if that's not the result you're getting then you need learn how to shoot.
>>4473683from experience and tests, film sux in shadowstake a look at officialy published curves by producents of film
>>4474103It isn't that film sucks in shadows. You can just use higher iso film, or extend exposure. It is that film can struggle when resolving low contrast detail.Sometimes the effect can be mitigated, but not always. On the opposite end of that film is great at resolving high contrast details and does not suffer from moire like digital. Negative film has very high exposure latitude, so a good photographer can expose for shadows, maintain detail in as much of the shadow areas as they want, and still retain highlight detail.Finally if we are being real you don't often need 100% detail in the shadow areas, and sometimes it looks better without.
