有人曾經估計菲林攝影的將來：就好似發明了汽車後，騎馬已經不會是代步工具，但騎馬仍會保留下來，作為一種運動、休閒、嗜好、品味.....

菲林攝影真的會有類似的將來？
( 後知後覺，原來 "快X美" 已經唔係間間都有機做菲林沖哂、印相，唔知幾時全線唔做菲林沖哂、印相 )

我始終覺得黑膠同CD個比喻比較貼切.

其實只要小本經營的沖晒店繼續見一間少一間，菲林廠同相機廠都冇得力挽狂瀾嫁啦.....

Like some people say, even Fuji & Kodak keep making films, the decreasing number of shops developing & printing films will kill people taking picx with films....it is my worry

Way back , when I am really kid , taking family snaps means a roll of B&W film and every shot counts ( it was expensive ). Color film come to be in the 70;s, and automated minilab come about in the 80's, then its digitization of the lab, and finally there is the digitization of the camera.

I do not seems to recall people mourning over the diminishing of the B&W, nor the going from manual focus to AF ...

There's nothing really sorry about the state of what film photography as it is today. Its just a fact of how the whole nature of things change and be ...

並非玩機一族。自己的歷程是135 菲林機用Manual Focus 鏡頭，某天很想(夢想)用萊卡M6，但自己知自己的財力。直至contax G 的出現，待至G2，就轉用了。實在地，跟過往比較，今天真正 "心中有團火地去拍攝" 的時間明顯少了，大都是snap shot、生活照、旅遊(順道拍些照)而已，於是買數碼機，還是專挑一些輕便的(直至今天還未投入數碼SLR)......

如果仍是有點固執，仍希望用菲林，轉向B&W的方向，自己沖 (唔自己晒，冇黑房)，自己scan，自己photoshop (digital黑房)，自己打印，可算是一個solution？

Just to share my 2 cents.
Some events, digital is a better choice.
But sometimes I enjoy shooting film.
Here is my "work flow" for color film
- Take the picture
- Develop by shop and (print 4R if film)
- Scan and photoshop
- Print the "keeper"

This way, I still rely on lab to do my developing. But I have a lot of control after that.

However, the disadvantage is this process is very time consuming.
First, setting up your basic workflow requires a lot of calibration. And each film requires some adjustments. (Film requires much more time than Slide for a novel photoshop user like me)

For me, it is FUN. And I enjoy watching my photo "born". But if the photos need to be develop in a short time, its a pain
