I know the film/digital war has been raging in this group forever, and
looking back on some of the posts, there were some people swearing
they'd never ever switch to digital. So, since that time, in the last 5
years, how many of you pros have switched to digital, and were you one
of those who swore thay never would?
I don't know any pro that was dead set against digital. Most have to
keep a more open mind than that. Also there are a significant number
of reasons as to why digital simply makes good business sense. Is it
better than film ? Nope. Does that matter to the pro ? Nope. What
matters in the end ? Is the client satisfied and did you make an
acceptable profit. We're not talking art here. We're talking
meat-&-potatoes on the table and a couple of vacations a year. Will I
personally ever go completely digital ? Nope. Will I use it for any
commercial work that finds it necessary of convenient ? Absolutely.
Digital is just another tool. Much like a light meter. Like I said,
it's not as good as film but then again we're talking about clients
that generally have no clue what quality is as can be seen from the
number of people making huge low-quality enlargements from 35mm in the
late 90's.
