That and forgetting to wind the film on after each shot then wondering why the clicky thing wouldn’t work.

Damned annoying ;)

Notice I said “somewhat compelled” though…

While at my cousin’s wedding this weekend past, the photographer on hand was one of the groom’s brothers. He was shooting film and was compelled to come round, examine both me and my camera equipment, and then tell me how superior is film over digital.

I said, “Uh huh,” and he continued to list all the examples he could quickly think of regarding films said superiority, none of which I would necessarily disagree with.

I think he was confused and thought I was also a professional, which is quite laughable, but I figured it wasn’t worth explaining to him that I’m just some slob amateur.

However, he must have thought enough of me as he asked me to take the pictures of him and his girlfriend with his camera.

My dad had an old Minolta and my uncles has…um…I can’t remember, but he’s old school and only shoots film.

I think I would probably do ok with a film camera but I’d drive myself nuts trying to look at the non-existent LCD after each shot!

My guess is that you’ll try pinhole photography. Perhaps bringing an old turntable and lamp amplifier back to life might be on your agenda as well. Who knows?
