In this video I hike up and in to the mountains to photograph sunset. I shoot with my Hasselblad 501cm film camera using Ektar 100. After sleeping in my van I photograph sunrise by a lake.

Film is still useful because teach the newborne photographers to previsualize the shot and to approach the process in a more purposeful and conscious way. Thomas already has this skills, so this images would be as good in digital as they are in film. I’m not saying that film is useless for him, because if it provides motivation and excitement, is certanly better to not let it go, but I think is unfair to say that the images are good “because of film”

Instant gratification is not my gripe, at all, from memory even if you processed one B&W film, you would sir posed to place it in running water for 1 hour @ 20 degree’s. To remover all traces of fixer from the film. I think it was the same for B&W sheet paper as well. Thats a huge waste of water in opinion, for no gain in image quality plus the whole process is really bad for the environment in my humble opinion. But to argue the film forces you to think, it’s true, but you can use digital in manual mode and you are still presented with the same problems a film. Focusing, over exposing or under exposing. Etc you could even drop in colour correction filters if you were really keen.

Just had a baby so its a rollercoaster at home. Watching this with a cup of tea and a toasted bagel was bliss. I think the point about the work you do is that it's your flow state: your way of coming into the depth of the present moment. We all need flow states in our life- whatever they may be- to find true contentment and a sense of purpose. In that respect, film is much more of a flow state experience than digital (at least for photography) because the awareness demands are much higher. You cannot be absent minded and successful. Good on yer Tom.

Shutter speed, ISO, and f-stops all started with the use of film. In my opinion, taking a class or two in film will improve your photography considerably. It certainly can't hurt; in fact it will make you love what you do even more. By the way, I love that camera you got. Peace, and God bless!!!

Film photography is a great discipline. I started out with film about 30 odd years ago with an Olympus OM1 and I think it makes you think in more detail about getting everything right in-camera, rather than be a little lazy with multiple digital images. Developing & printing is wonderfully hands-on, creative and satisfying as well.

Hello Thomas: Yes, I also was a film shooter from 1987 to 2006 and now a digital shooter. The good time of the film was that we had to be sure about the exposition of each photograph and bracket a bit too sometimes just to be sure we bring back the correct exposition home. And at that time there were not many photographers around even in the whole country (Chile). The digital age yes opened the door to photography to a lot of new talents. It is just incredible what we see today. Best luck with your photography. I am glad to follow you and travel with you. it is sometimes very exiting! Greetings from Patagonia.

Coming back to film is a joy for me. My Hasselblad 500C/M has no batteries and no histograms, I consider the scene and meter as carefully as I can. I frame, focus take the shot and move on. There is a satisfaction in this process that I get above anything I ever do with a digital camera. I do not miss the instant preview on the back of the camera at all. I enjoy forgetting the shot and looking for the next. The anticipation of the images from a freshly developed roll when I open the developing tank and pull the film off the spool will never be matched by scrolling through an sd card. You manage to capture some of the quietness in this process with your conversation when waiting for the right sunlight to hit that hill. It is a more considered way of photographing, obviously not for everyone but it is the way I prefer. When you say that people refuse to watch your videos if they are with the film camera I am perplexed, maybe they should try this way of shooting... It is addictive though so beware.

In terms of technicality, film is like photography on hard mode. Like in video games, yeah it's harder, but it's also incredibly satisfying when you achieve it. Neither mode is better - it's just about what you prefer for your personal experience. The other appeal of film cameras is the escape from digitisation. In that sense, it's like reading, crafts, sports, walks, or talking to people. It puts you back in touch with your physical senses and is very mindful. Either way, definite benefits. It's a mistake to see digital/film as an either/or situation. You just use whichever one suits the situation!

I was in the same area of the Lake District a few weeks ago taking images for a third book. Your video brought an emotional response...that began flooding my memory banks of a lifelong professional love affair with film cameras. I reluctantly stepped over the barrier into digital after years of clinging to my last rolls of Velvia. Although I now admit that my high end, high pixels DSLR bodies are far superior in image quality...there was always something magical about using those old cameras. Like oak and leather furniture, I value strong, heavy, well made equipment that is made to last. And that is maybe why I'm still using heavy metal bodied, polished glass ED lenses bayoneted onto my modern digital cameras. Us old boys still love our old toys. 😂😉

I follow many many KZfaq photographers and to be honest there is not a lot to choose between....say the best 10 IMO. I want to follow the ones who use the gear similar to mine (and have the right personality) to pick up tips. Everyone of them seem to have slightly different composition set up's but like most of us we slowly develop our own style, so whilst composition IS VERY important for many of us it's still the mastery of the camera being the force for viewing.

Love seeing that you young folks are still entertaining the old ways every now and then. By the way, you really should load your film back in a dark area like under your coat or something. I used a Rolleiflex for years in the 60s and every time I loaded in daylight, the film would slightly fog on the edges. Have fun and keep the old stuff working. Love to see it.

tom, you should never feel guilty about being 'positive', 13:10, because.... you never know....... putting yourself where you feel you need to be is why you get such great results, thanks.....

Just started this video, and just want to say film is awesome, it is what I learned on and loved for many years, I wish I still had my old film Nikons! I have embraced digital though and switched to Fujifilm from Nikon a couple of years ago and love it, also since I started watching yourself and others I have learned so much and my photography has certainly improved. Now back to the video.

I’ve been shooting since before digital cameras were a thing but I do believe that Digital has a place in my arsenal of gear however for landscape I much prefer film. The whole process of being out there in nature and the ritual of operating the camera is just nice. Slowing down to enjoy the process and the surroundings just makes the whole outing enjoyable. If I get home and have at least one killer image I consider it a good day. The tactile nature of developing the film and having something to physically archive and go back to is nice also.

I was a photo lab assistant in college back in the seventies. I don’t miss the smell of a darkroom, but it was wonderful to see as the image appears in the developer! That is something that as great as digital is, it lacks. I still shoot film once in a while, but now You can say I am a hybrid photographer.

I started with a Canon AE-1 that I bought at a pawn shop. Now for the past couple of years I’ve been looking on line for another one that has been stored in the closet for 30 plus years, without a scratch on it for $100.00!!!! I dream a lot !!!!!! Great images!!!! Thanks!!!!!
