Has anyone considered using film again? Or does anyone currently use both?
With three LTM lenses now, I've been getting the itch for film again. Though I have a perfectly good Nikon FM2n, I've spent a good portion of the last few days drooling over the somewhat affordable Leica M4 series, Leica III's, and also the Voigtlander Bessa's. I have to say, I'm probably going to pick one up early next year. I still imagine I'd shoot 85% digital/15% film, I'm just missing some of the look and feel of film, especially for black and white. Or maybe I'm just missing some of the romance working with film provides. Fortunately, I have a local camera shop less than a mile away that still does professional grade processing, so that helps make the decision a little easier! Probably wouldn't be to hard to process and scan the negatives at home, either (it's probably been 20 years since I've done that!).
Anyone else ever get a similar feeling?
