Well, After nearly two decades of shooting film with my Konica T2 and (more recently) nT3, I've bit the bullet and am making the shift to digital. Hopefully,...
... I haven't been on this list for a great length of time (only found it a few months ago), but I just have to add the following... Have been using Konica's...
... Just because you go digital, you don't need to get rid of your film camera, I got a Canon Digital Rebel over a year ago, and although I don't use film as...
Pugs, I'll echo what the *other Steve* said, and Wog, too. I've been dabbling in digital and it's not all sunshine and roses. Trying to find an editing program...
... On a roll of film, I expect 2 or 3 photos to be worth printing, maybe one every couple of rolls that would be worth the big print for the wall. When that...
Hi Steve, "Trying to find an editing program you LIKE may be a pain in the rear. Prints may/may not, turn out nearly as well as you'd thought. White balance,...
Hi again; ... And this is actually a major issue with digital.. All of those years spent in the fume room learning to "tweak" that print just so must all be...
I've been shooting digital since the late 1990s and went full-time with digital for work when the Nikon D1H came out. I still love shooting film though. I have...
Hi, Much the same experience as everyone else... Perhaps with a few twists and turns. Although I had a $1000 1.5MP Olympus ZLR for work as early as 1996 or 97...
Guys, my situation is probably different than most of you. With my lack of eyesight, I think I'd be nuts to spend $650 for Photoshop. Timewise, my *ability to...
<<And as has been repeated so many times on this list... It's not the equipment, it's the photographer">> You are right.. It's the photographer and his...
... I would like to share the progression I have taken from film to digital, at least for the most part. in 1983 I had a fume room, where I processed B&W,...
... Ah ... And that to me is the key to this thread, through nostalgia, my Konica's will live on forever... I'll admit that in this day and age they may not...
Great responses to the digital conundrum--like it or not, it is here to stay. I have been doing mostly digital for about four years now--here are my reasons:...
I've been shooting digital for about 5 years now, but really enjoy shooting with my Konica's still. Last year I went to Paris for a weekend & only took my TC,...
I have to say that I think I compose better using my Konicas and Leicas. The simple reason for this is that it's manual focus. I compose and focus at the same...
Wow--sorry for that.? It's a digital risk we all run, and it is certainly the Achilles heel of the digital photo world.? No doubt your post could take us into...
... Ah the evaporating CD dilemma, there are two things to keep in mind.... First is that CD's should be stored under conditions similar to processed colour...
In response to Colin's post, I use digital with work (Canon EOS Rebel XTi - 400D) but personally, I have recently dusted off my Konica and made time to get...
One thing I would like to add to that, is that when you duplicate a picture to a CD or DVD it is lossless everytime, which is not the case with film to film...
No doubt whatsoever that the digital user has a huge advantage in the duplication and storage areas.? One method I use for redundancy in family photos is to...
Erik, Great pics, especially the one of someone's self-portrait in the mirror, with the lettering on the Konica TC reversed. ... Rebel XTi - ... time to ... ...
... Hi Steve, I'm gonna take a chance the Konica folks will tolerate a little modern Canon talk... I agree that AF tends to force overly centered or "bullet" ...
... airports ... Hi Eric, One option is to ship the film ahead to your hotel, via a carrier that will handle it properly (check with them, don't assume). Of...
Hi George! Is this George in Eugene? If it is, I am an AV Producer at Musician's Friend, and also do side gigs at the Craterian with Shawn as sound tech. I am...
Alan, Yes I have used all the different methods and as you have described. I use the Mark IIN, 5D, 40D and also an Olympus E-3. Autofocus is really a lifesaver...
Hi Erik, Go to any FNAK store for processing. David ... From: Erik Beyer To: konicaslr@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, April 03, 2008 6:55 AM Subject: Re:...
This is a big issue for a lot of people. I don't backup as well or as often as I should, either, I'm afraid. From what I understand, the following can help: 1....
Did anyone notice page 100 of the April 2008 Issue of Popular Photography? In its recurring section, "25 Years Ago Today" it highlights from its April 1983...
