I've been dabbling in photography for a few years but my skill level may be considered amateur at best. Everything I shoot has been on film to this point and to a certain extent I have only been somewhat satisfied with the results. Most of this can be attributed to "operator error" however there are those moments when everything should have been perfect but leave me quite displeased when I get the results back from the lab. Of coarse, some shots are better than others but generally I have not been impressed with what comes back. The greens are not nearly as green as I remember them. Same with the blues and reds.. There's just something missing.
I have visited many of your web pages out there and the one thing that
appears consistant is that mnay of the pictures that I find so awe-inspiring
are those taken using color slides. Specifically, I have been most
impressed with those results from Fuji Velvia in the ISO 50 range.
Sorry to be so winded so I'll get to my point. What does it take to switch
to color slide and be able to enjoy the results? I am completely illiterate
as to how you turn color slides into jpgs or any type of viewable picture
for that matter. Is it worth the switch? What kind and how much of an
investment in equipiment can I expect to have to make? I'm not sure is I
want to give up the convenience of being able to look at a fisnished product
like you can with film. .
Someone please enlighten me or send me down the right path at least. Once again, any and all help is very much appreciated!
