[QUOTE="STM, post: 368369, member: 12827"] First off, I don't have anything against digital photography. I use my D700 quite a but. But to put things in perspective for you, I have been doing film photography since 1972 and digital since 2001. For me, the jury is still out on digital, especially when you compare it to the images I can produce with my Hasselblad. Medium format fine grain film still blows digital off the map with the exception of the medium format digitals. And digital has always had a "plastic" look to it compared to film. Film has an intangible quality and charm that digital is still a long way away from replicating. And if you have never been in a dark room, not only are you not an expert, you are not even a novice. So again, when it comes to someone like me who [I]still[/I] works in the darkroom, you have no credibility whatsoever with me to talk about it and compare it to digital. And on an unrelated matter, you have been on this site for almost 10 months and have yet to upload an image of yours. Why is that? [/QUOTE]
