Digital or Film?

Hey photography world,

So every photographer out there is faced with the same dilemma; should I get a digital or film camera?

Pros of a digital camera

  • Instant feedback-No more worrying about if the picture came out ok, or wondering if you captured your vision
  • No Film-You don’t have to hassle with film, and you will be saving a lot of money
  • No printing-Another aspect you do not have to waste your money on. You can store all of your pictures on your computer
  • Space-You do not have to worry about wasting your film. With a digital camera you have the freedom to take as many pictures as you want.

Cons of a digital camera

  • Complexity-Most people are not technology savvy and will have problems learning the new buttons and gadgets.
  • Storage-If you have a laptop and/or home computer with a lot of space for storing your pictures great, but if you do not then you might have a problem with were to keep your great photos.
  • Cost-Film cameras are cheaper, about $100 cheaper to be exact. The average price for a digital camera, is $325
  • Battery life-Most digital cameras deal with batteries or they must be charged. They can die pretty fast

Pros of a film camera

  • Cost-They are cheaper then digital cameras

Cons of a film camera

  • You have to keep buying film.
  • The film must be developed
  • You can not make mistakes
  • You can not review your photos

-As you can see film cameras do not have as many pros as the digital camera. But hey its all in the eyes of the creator.

But in my opinion, digital cameras are better :)
