>>3092201I'm still a photo novice but the feeling i get is that film is closer to the way we ordinarily see the world. i get a better idea of touch and taste (and even smell and sound) from a film than a digital shot, and everything feels more holistic
from what i understand, digital cameras translate (continuous) visual information into (discontinuous) binary information. kind of like trying to construct a circle out of horizontal and vertical lines. theoretically it will never be a perfect circle but if you get the lines small enough it becomes difficult to notice
i used to prefer film but i think digital is better suited to today/this century. humans are transitioning into machines
