photos? what's the point?
photos? what's the point?
What is wrong with a good digital camera?
Anyone who is still messing with photos is a dinosaur.
I really have a problem with you photo snobs.
Do you know how many peruvians die each year mining the silver you snobs
need for your film?
If you all dropped off the face of the earth, you'd be doing the world a
favor.

Obviously, you've never experienced actully working with the "wet" process,
from shooting, thru the darkroom, to a finished print mounted and framed on
the wall.
As for the dying Peruvians (note the upper case "P", a grammatical style
used for proper nouns), the chemicals and processes used in making a digital
camera are far more toxic than the small amount of silver used in film-based
photography.
And then there are the thousands of digital cameras that are trashed each
year because they are obsolete. Every one of my cameras is at least ten
years old (and many of them are over forty years old) and they all work just
as well as they did when they came off the assembly line. Each of them is
automatically updated to the latest 'image-capture' technology every time I
load a new roll of film.
I am not a 'photo snob'; I just realize that for what I do, film-based
photography is better.
BTW, the dinosaurs are now oil. See how long you can go without them.

It's that obvious, huh?

I never said silver was toxic you dolt. Go re-read your high school
chemistry textbook.
Take a minute to consider the fate to which you consign others, rather
than just your own convenience, before hitting the 'reply' button.
Peruvian miners are dying so you can indulge yourself.

Are you a garbabe man? You state this as if it is a fact, when it is
nothing more than a fabrication made out of whole cloth. Cites please.

Which is to say... what, exactly?

Obviously, "for what you do" you are going to use whatever you damn well
please. But spare a second's thought for the Peruvians that die so you
can indulge your anachronistic fetish.
I hope you are appreciate my treatement of the "proper noun"; I wouldn't
want any Peruvians to feel they were being slighted by their small "p"'s.
Thank you for magnanimously volunteering to correct my grammar.
> BTW, the dinosaurs are now oil. See how long you can go without them.
Wow, what a non sequitur.
