Nor am I against digital. If that's what floats your boat.
But I am not seduced by any of the advantages such as instant feedback or
availability. I have almost all I need, right here, right now. Film is not
expensive (I buy from 7dayshop, online) and processing reasonable. It is
also a spreadable cost, whereas buying into digital is beyond my current
means and credit rating.
I don't mind scanning the few images that deserve it. I quite enjoy
Photoshopping. Storage is easy, quick and well-established, with fast
analogue review (hold sheet of slides up to light...) and I have never, so
far, suffered from fungus or serious fading.
All in all, while I have no objection to digital per se, why should I
consider changing, at this stage? Even if I could afford it.
YMMV, as ever.
Happy Holidays to all.
D.
