    Commercial photographer here. Learned on film/shot film for several years. The last time a client was fine with me shooting film was 2006. Nothing for a client since then. A shame since film can be so unique looking and the process demands different workflow. But I just can't imagine any of my current clients being fine with me showing up with my RZ. Most of my jobs require remote computer screen viewing via zoom or at the very least sending along jpgs to someone off site....

      Yeah it definitely nose dived but have found with some clients it making a mini comeback at times recently!

    The big take away from this video is that no one cares what tools you use so long as you do a good job... Almost no one except for the gear heads will ever question you over what camera you use so long as it does the job. Most people won't know, unless you happen to drag out an 8x10 camera of course, but then that can be an attraction in itself... As to not editing photos, unless you're shooting slides and projecting them, then you're editing 100% full stop. Even your scanner is an editor...
    The biggest problem with it these days is that most film labs don't know how to calibrate their scanners... So you're left buying a film scanner yourself, or editing really poorly scanned film from your lab unless you know of a particular professional lab that is willing to give you flat scans in TIFF or RAW format... I ended up buying a Nikon film scanner that can do 16bit RAW files itself...
    When I can be bothered scanning for myself I can get good results up to 18x12s from ISO100 film.

      Could not agree and more with this comment in its entirety! The difference I’ve had in scans from various labs over the years is incredible. Tiff’s have always given me the best results too. Self-scanning is definitely something that I’m looking to try in the near future. Thanks for watching!

    • @orestes1984
      @orestes1984 Год назад +1

      Trust me, self scanning is worth it, either buying a newer Reflecta/Pacific Image scanner, or an older high end Nikon or Konica Minolta scanner...
      If you can get your hands on something like my Nikon SuperCool Scan 5000 it can automate the process a bit as it can handle both the slide feeder, as well as the roll holder that goes out the back of it, so you can scan an entire roll at once.
      The original scanner could produce RAW so when you couple it with something like Vuescan you can set and forget then come back once you have a whole bunch of 48bit RAW files. Having film scans with a wide gamut Pro Photo RGB file is utterly amazing. It will make you think you're basically using a DSLR in terms of your histogram control.
      Or you could just use a modern DSLR with Negative Lab Pro.
