Thinking about digital cameras... - GuyGene - 08-15-2013
And, I've concluded that there's no use to even use the word "digital" in front of camera anymore.

You'd be wrong about that. I shoot film.

And you can follow it with "phone".

I still have more film cameras than digital. But the film cameras aren't used nearly as much.
Re: Thinking about digital cameras... - GuyGene - 08-15-2013
Oh well, I know there are a few who still use film, like, who's that famous photographer in California, Jose ? Who I think only uses film?
I mean just for the majority of regular boys like me.
Oh, and free, yes, I thought I was wrong one other time, but I was mistaken.

In the early days of digital in the news business, AP required us to put "Digital camera image" or just "Digital image" in the IPTC special instructions field. It was useful in the initial years because the early digital cameras could produce some pretty nasty stuff and it was important to explain why some images looked funky.
But as cameras got better, that requirement lasted way too long and it got to the point where everything was digital (and looked as good or better than film) and we should have been putting "Film image" on the occasional non-digital image. :biggrin:

Yeah, that's the kind of thing I was thinking about, All.
