>>2666998I have to agree, but at the same time when you're working with film you are all manual, at least I am. Some of the automatic features in DSLR's now a days make it smoother to transition from bright to dark scenes without having to think about it too much. At this point we are talking about just wanting to capture what is going on, with photo journalism and photo-documentary work you sometimes have to be on your toes. I'd gotten pretty good at just choosing a decent place to be and when it came to having to push the f stop just doing it and trying to get right in there, but now I find that it is much more dynamic when I just worry about either the Fstop while the camera takes care of the shutter time, or vice versa, and that direct control of the ISO sensitivity is key when moving through an area quickly or traveling with literally the clothes, camera, and battery pack on your back. lolz. Either way, I can still do a lot of what I did with film, except this time I'm not stuck to just that roll I've got in there and the price of developing whatever I shoot that day, and although I did that all on my own with b&w for like 2 years, it isn't something I want to blow entire weekends on, UNLESS I am working on an artistic project. I feel this is the basic difference, because with art I like to mess about and try different things during the developing etc. So I mean, it really depends what you want to do with it. I find both are fine mediums and are relevant to this day. It's just a matter of what spectrum in the creativity of painting with light you wish to engage in, I have often thought about traveling with a film and a dslr camera, but I would have to really limit myself to the shots I'd take with 35mm.
