The Maroon Bells

Hi Daniel,

Interested to see that you are spending time back in film land. I thought you had converted to the 5D, but here I am seeing some postings regarding Kodachrome and the Xpan.

I'm not too happy with the 5D image output to be honest and find that there is something 'organic' and more pleasing to the eye when using film.

Have you decided to abort digital, or are you simply using multiple formats / systems ?

Love the xpan shots and the Kodachrome ones too. There is a colour response there that I feel is lost in the digital domain.

Regards

"There is a colour response there that I feel is lost in the digital domain."

I agree.

I do like the output of the 5D, but it takes a little tweaking to see what works best.

I shoot about 60/40 digital to film these days. The Kodachrome project will be the most important one I do in my lifetime.

I'm glad we can still shoot both. I am always amazed at how many "film is dead" comments there are.

Thanks for commenting!
