Q&A - #2

Give reason why you would use film to take a particular shot.

  • Image Quality
- Film is not effected as such by moire' patterns caused by under sampling a fine regular pattern.

- Landscape photography + large format film = WOW factor over untouched digital.

- Highlight areas in film mimic the eye better than digital highlights that abruptly clip and look horrible as soon as anything hits white. Unlike film there is no gradual overload to white.
  • Client's request
- They may still use transparency for many reasons (eg. archival or historical reasons)
