ok, I'd check it out, but there are other forums with long established ties to film and film cameras where people are also scanning and producing large prints... even dedicated printing forums... it just seems to me that FM is more heavily devoted to digital shooters (in fact on numerous occasions I been told here that this is a "Canon DSLR forum," not a "Canon-Mount SLR forum" in response to some of my film based comments.

There are numerous references to film and film gear dotted all over the site...so a dedicated forum seems the logical thing. As it happens, most film users now print digitally so they have a foot in both camps.....and there are other benefits to a cross platform forum. How many film users know...for example...that NoiseNinja can be used to virtually remove grain from a scanned neg to give a lovely effect...without effecting sharpness?

or know of this site:

For the sceptics that believe film is dead...I have been looking to buy an Epson V700 or V750 scanner off eBay...but they are going for silly money..virtually 'new' prices..sometimes...so there is clearly a lot of film users out there willing to invest their cash in this medium...

This is one of the reasons why film contributions are so popular I guess. Digibetism or computer illiteracy and nostalgic feelings for film often go together I am afraid lot's of film photographer don't even know how to login to this board

Nope. Film is not into power anymore since the impeachment by digital. Todays photofun is digital EOSfun

B&W film does possess a beauty that is still pretty much untouched as far as I'm concerned. Of course I also still have a thing for slides too.

Photofun is not limited strictly to digital, I have fun shooting film, I like shooting film and so do lots of others. Photography is fun period.

At first I thought you were being somewhat farcical. But looking back into the thread, you repeat the same drivel over and over and over. I have to assume you are not trying (at least intentionally!) to make a joke. Rest assured, this doesn't mean you're not amusing!

Actually, your statement only reinforces my own stereotype: That of zealous pixel-counting, feature quoting dweebs, who are so insecure that they feel the need to constantly slam film and film users. If you absolutely must wank off over your 'superior' digital camera, please go do it somewhere else.
