1)But seriously though, its the subculture part of it (as mattias put it) that makes it cool. -I am not concerned about being a part of some subculture. Neither am I, but that doesnt mean youre not part of it. And besides anyone who enters the filmmaking world is a part of a subculture. 2)Most of u...

this has been discussed earlier, so search a little and you'll find a lovely little thread discussing the advantages and disadvantages using this method.

When people ask me why I shoot on ancient equipment, I always answer ''Because its expensive and I love it'' But seriously though, its the subculture part of it (as mattias put it) that makes it cool. Most of us shoot on film because we want to stick out, infact we're probably all insane not using ...

I was a bit tired when I wrote that yesterday so Ill clear things out now. Youre right Mattias, grain does not actuallyexist in reality.
