I thought about how I would be taking photos on a DSLR (Digital Single Reflex) camera using film. I could take a few hundred photos on a digital camera & it would cost me a fraction of the price than buying film cartridges to take the same amount of photos. One would really have to know the camera settings used to achieve a good manual photo, among other things. The correct focus & aperture for the shot, the white balance, the ISO choice, has to be perfect for the shot, & perfection comes with experience.
Sure, modern cameras can do most of the work for us but then one would not be learning much now. So set your digital camera to manual & practice creating good photos. I do it often & receive complaints for being slow too take a picture. Compared to using the auto mode & composing the photo, then pressing the button; undeniably a manual shot would take a bit longer. Some people can be too impatient.
SshheeEEssHHh!
Be thick skinned & take the complaint by your stride because we will know what is wrong with a photo when we see it. One would not want to be so trigger happy with a film camera. Therefore using film DSLR cameras are certainly not for novices. Still, I do not really know any experienced photographers using film DSLR anymore. Some folks like my parents still use film cameras, I guess because film cameras have less features to understand & simpler to use for them.
