Re: Any film shooters?

And as you say, film makes you consider your shots more carefully, especially nowadays, since you know every frame costs you money. Overall i think that switching to film has made me a better, more selective photographer. It makes you think before you press the shutter button, is this shot worth it ...

Re: Any film shooters?

I agree, there is nothing like holding an actual physical photograph, it's the real deal, reality frozen in time, so to speak.

I think it has a really special aesthetic you can't create with digital cameras.


I agree completely, you can mimic it, or try, but there is nothing like the real deal for me personally.

Re: Any film shooters?

They even offer different scanning option from a basic Epson V700, Nikon LS-5000 which gives me around 21Mp from 35mm slides, or even Drum scanning, but the drum scans are 6 bucks a pop! although the quality is insane.

Re: Any film shooters?

There is a really good lab here in my town less than 2km from me, They do in-house B&W, C-41 and E-6 processing. They opened 5 years ago and have had to hire people recently to aid with processing as they barely could keep up with the amount of film getting sent or dropped off at them, i've beco...

How can JFK be so useless at dealing with winter weather??
JFK is one of the most important airports in the world, you'd think they have well thought out plans and the equipment to deal with this kind of weather!

Re: Where should Finnair fly next?

I love Finnair, every time i've flown on them it has been a great experience.
I wish they had a regular direct PMI-HEL flight, since i'm Finish and i'd love to be able to fly directly to HEL, and from there just have to get on the train to Oulu.

Why so much hate towards Airbus?

I follow the Airliners.net Facebook page and it seems that in a lot of pictures where there are Airbuses there is some ( usually ) American saying that Airbus is crap , because it's french , european and " If it ain't Boeing i'm not going"
I really don't get the hate...

Re: Dreadful Liveries

I am Finnish and i also thought when i saw the new Finnair livery, what the hell?! but then when you see it against the snow in winter, like i did taxiing last winter at Vantaa on a snowy day it makes perfect sense, it looks fantastic
I think Iberia's new livery is crap

Is the A380 Dead

I heard Airbus is having trouble selling their A380s as the industry is moving towards more efficient twin engined aircraft.
Is it the end of the A380?
