5 Reasons To Shoot On Film
1. There’s something special about holding a film photograph in your hand.
2. Film photographs have a certain look that digital can’t replicate.
3. Film forces you to slow down and think about your composition.
4. Film is more forgiving than digital, making it a great choice for beginners.
5. Shooting on film is a great way to stand out from the crowd.
As a professional photographer, I often get asked why I still shoot on film. After all, digital has come a long way in recent years and many photographers have made the switch to shooting digital exclusively.
Here are 5 reasons why I think shooting on film is still a great choice for photographers:
1. There’s something special about holding a film photograph in your hand.
There’s just something about holding a physical photograph in your hand that is special. With digital photographs, it’s easy to forget that there is a real photograph behind all the 1s and 0s. But with film, you can hold the physical photograph in your hand and really appreciate the artistry that went into creating it.
2. Film photographs have a certain look that digital can’t replicate.
No matter how hard digital photographers try, they can’t quite replicate the look of a film photograph. Film has a certain graininess and depth of color that digital just can’t match. For many photographers, this is part of the appeal of shooting on film.
3. Film forces you to slow down and think about your composition.
With digital, it’s easy to take a million photographs and just delete the ones you don’t like. But with film, you have to be more thoughtful about your composition because each frame costs money. This forces you to slow down and think about your composition, which can only result in better photographs.
4. Film is more forgiving than digital, making it a great choice for beginners.
One of the great things about film is that it is more forgiving than digital. With digital, if you make a mistake, it can be very difficult to fix. But with film, you can often salvage a photograph even if it isn’t perfect. This makes film a great choice for beginners who are still learning the ropes.
5. Shooting on film is a great way to stand out from the crowd.
In the age of digital, it can be easy to blend in with the crowd. But if you shoot on film, you’ll instantly stand out. Film photography is still relatively rare, so shooting on film is a great way to make your work stand out from the rest.
