Alright, I got more responses than I thought I would on the first part now here is the second part of the questions, there are only three parts to it so bare with me.
For those who shoot film:
When you buy film what kind do you normally get? Do you buy it for the situation I.E. ISO 200 for sunny days, or do you just buy a general purpose film like ISO 400 all the time?
Does your camera have manual and automatic settings?
If it has the capability for manual settings, do you use them?
How do you store your negatives and prints?
Have you ever sold a photo?
Have you ever taken a photo that you thought could be sold?
Thats all for this set of questions, I want to thank everyone for their participation so far this is going to be put to use in the very near future bith for an article and to restructure my other website.
About Jeff A
A photographer with way too much time on my hands.
Ok, Jeff. Here are my answers:
1. I try to keep a variety of film on hand but I mostly use ISO 200 and ISO 400. I’ve got 800 and 1000 but haven’t had time to experiment.
2. Both the 35mm and the digital have auto and manual settings.
3. I have used the manual settings on the 35mm film camera and some on the digital. I’m still learning how to use the manual settings on both.
4. I try to put my prints in albums (although I still have a lot of photos sitting in a box). I keep the negatives in the album in one of the picture slots to try to keep it all together.
5. I’ve never sold any photos but I have volunteered my services for local municipal groups.
6. This is a hard question. I’ve taken a few that I thought might be worthy. Most of my photography is just for the fun of it but I would love to learn more and improve my skills.
