>>4341333>but the color and detail rendering were god awful. Trees and grass in particular, sand, anything with fine detail was somehow simultaneously mushy and over-sharpened. Color was garish and Rockwellian.Skill issue. Digital has almost limitless color and tonal possibilities. Sharpening can be emphasized or turned off. Resolution can be up or downsampled, and you can add noise. Adding noise at different resolutions gives different effects. Colors are completely within your control. You just lack vision and expertise, and rely on the color scientists at Kodak or Fuji to do it for you.

>>4341539>>4341549Having "good colors out of the box" isn't the flex you think it is. Film usually looks good under daylight or flash, try shooting gold 200 under fluorescent or incandescent lights like attached pic. Completely forget it if you're at a performance space with those awful saturated leds. With film you're locked into look whether you want it or not. How many options do you have? 6 or 8? None perform well in all lighting conditions or subject matters.
>but, butt I can just edit my film scans or do darkroom edits!I thought film was perfect out of the box
