So I'm just trying to determine the 'bottlenecks' of 35mm photography in terms of image quality (from least important to most).
5. Camera body, has little if any impact of the quality of picture
4. Developing the film, doesn't really differ in quality from lab-to-lab. Even street labs and high street chains develop well.
3. The film itself. Most films are fairly capable, some have finer grain/colours.
2. Camera lens, is s bit factor on the quality of the overall image. Better glass = better images.
1. Quality of scans. Even the best images can look shit from a poor quality scan.
I'd probably say a couple of these can be interchangeable but is this about right?
