Slightly connected to this discussion..... I've been having some very heated discussions with die-hard film users in the last couple of weeks. I won't be swayed by their arguments (unless they're talking about at least Medium Format film) and usually just stick with.....
a. "You can't change White Balance frame by frame with film - you get daylight or tungsten, end of." -- with Digital you can do that.
b. "You can't change ISO/ASA with film half way through - or if you do you'll be unable to develop half of it." - with Digital you can do that.
And I've now added....
c. "With film negatives, you develop them. That's it. You can't go back and develop them again to correct any errors. They're done. Finished." - "But with Raw, you can develop it any number of times, making different versions or just correcting anything you missed! Ansel Adams, for one, would have loved it, even though he was always dismissive of modern technology and would have got somebody else to do it."
So there's a bit of ammunition for you next time you meet that boring man in the beige cardigan down at the camera club!
