One of the reasons I have stayed away from current vintage auto-everything cameras is that I spend too much time on and around computers already. I like analog alternatives in most areas of life for just that reason. I really like traditional darkrooms. To me they relate well to what you do taking the picture because you are only dealing with time and light. Digital is another animal altogether. I'm glad to have a digital darkroom setup, but if my housing situation were different, I might have gone for a "wet" dark room instead. - --- "Zeissler, Mitch" <mzeissle@gannett.com> wrote: > All... > > I've been seeing more of a trend among the more > experienced computer > tech folks going with film cameras, rather than > digicams [the new or > recently minted guys still go for all the eToys]. > The prevailing > thought of those that I've talked to is that they > want to get away from > feeling tethered and automated all the time.
