it's not gonna be easy to shoot under harsh sun conditions considering the fact that most of the ppls are using digital and snap and adjust according. film can't do the same

 

[LightStalker]

Yeah, film is totally hard.. send a guy in with film and out of 100 shots probably only 5 will survive... Unless he superpro and pack all available filters at the lens.. jk :bsmilie: Also dont think that would help much ..

i hate to sound like someone very experienced and purposely differ from you but, thats an excuse, not a reason! its possible with film. once again, the cams in ur hands...

then again, i wasnt there!! so maybe you're right. my points just that whats possible with film is generally possible with digital.

cheers!

did anyone say it is impossible? no

we jus say that its is very difficult to shoot wif film wif such harsh light...as it nt easy to get the exposure correct n the highlight can be easily blown up...n wif film u wun 1 to trigger happy...as per frame is money...

So, if the time you went for the shoot was say, 6-8am, 3-7pm...you will be trigger happy ? I don't see how that will help u make nice photos.

in that scenario i probably wouldnt be trigger happy; in leisure shooting w film, who is triggerhappy? you are only trigger happy when 1) you are rich, or 2) you know what u are doing.
my point is that it is up to you to whether u want to make nice photos or not, regardless the situation. u can always spotmeter off midtone areas....

Douglas

oh and for the record, can you really define what is a correct exposure? you cannot. I'm not some modern post-modernist here but the exposure should really reflect what you are taking, not whether it is correct or wrong.
