Default Hello

I am Michael from Luxembourg and use a medium format rangefinder (Voigtlander Bessa 667w) and an old Rollei TLR.
Anyone who switched back to film completely? I consider purchasing a 35mm to make the move because you need convenience in everyday life.
Regards to everyone.
Michael

Hi Michael, and welcome aboard.

Can't comment on switching to film because I've never used anything else (apart from my phone, and that does not count ).

Have fun, Bob.

Hello and welcome, Michael!

I never switched away completely, when digital was new I used it a bit, played around with photoshop and so on. It has certain advantages, but I do not really like it..., if I should live untill the day there is no more film to buy, I'd rather start painting than go digital. I use 35mm film for everyday pictures, traveling, the family and so on, mainly b/w. THe only problem I have with it, is, that I take much more pictures than I can print, the last few years I hardly managed to develop my films... there are still about 20 rolls around somewehere, waiting to be developed. I should try to get faster somehow...
