Digital Lab Microscope

The advent of digital photography killed 35 mm and most medium-use format film shooters as spring and photographers Marriage found much easier to watch the LCD screen to see if they "have the ball" rather than run to his lab and wait a week for prints. Industry experts confidently predicted the total elimination of film or photographic, but it has not work that way.

Granted, the stock of available films has been significantly reduced, but there is a large and growing team gunmen willing and able to support producers of films such as Ilford and Fuji for the future. Why is this the case?

The photographic community is not monolithic, but it is difficult to see this when all you watch is the mass market appeal of digital cameras. But Beyond that you have a diverse group of people to consider. There are those that are flat in love with the wet chemistry and want to continue with a variety of vintage and current processes. APUG.org (Analog Photography Users Group) is dedicated to this market segment and now has 33,000 members contributors worldwide. There are active forums on topics such as film and chemicals, printing and all related subjects.

Then there are those employing a variety of camera systems which simply do not accept a digital back or make a sentence that enormous cost and weight. For example, there are literally hundreds of thousands of systems Hassleblad medium format film using. Oh, sure, you can speed to digital in this area, but you'd better be ready to fork over $ 25,000 for the basic kit. Thank you, but a roll of 4 million tones of films more functional.

Finally, there is a group of people who use 4x5 "and large format cameras. There are things that only a camera bellows can accomplish and takes into account cost and weight, the film is the winner. Again, there is a return to digital imaging for 4x5, but it costs approximately $ 20,000 and is mainly suitable for studio use only. The market for this gadget is microscopic and is likely to remain for some weather.

The simplistic view is that new technology is sweeping all before it in a constant battle and the irresistible tide, obliterating all techniques and methods before along the path. But when the stuff was even more valuable, he survives.
