I would be most grateful for peoples input on this one.
I am a wedding photographer happily using film when everyone is telling me to
"go dig". I have attended two digital courses run by the BIPP which, although being
very good in their own right, did not pursuade me to join the dark side.
I just cannot see the benefits. Firstly, the huge expense of converting to digital when
I already have an analog system that works fine. Secondly, the added workflow found
in post production when having to correct up to 300 images. At the moment I just send
my film of to the lab to do all this and therefore have more time to make money. Thirdly,
exposure is so critical with digital, especially when you have a white wedding dress
floating around, something I have not as yet managed to work out. With film I just point
and shoot in the knowledge that the film's latitude will cope with all situations, leaving
me free to think about images.
I use a D100 for press and PR work and firstly find it very difficult to control exposure and
secondly find that TTL flash gives totally inconsistant results.
