Elias, I'd say I have always enjoyed it for it's inherent look, feel, and capabilities. I miss the days that we had so many possible films to play with in our creative play pen called the darkroom with a 35MM. Now each exposure to that last roll of the stash, frame by frame, the excitement builds until the alas there is no more stash, and the refrigerator is empty of those little boxes and bulk holder sits empty. : ( Eric Eric Neilsen Eric Neilsen Photography 4101 Commerce Street, Suite 9 Dallas, TX 75226 www.ericneilsenphotography.com skype me with ejprinter -----Original Message----- From: pure-silver-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:pure-silver-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Elias Roustom Sent: Saturday, November 14, 2009 9:29 AM To: pure-silver@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [pure-silver] 35mm (started with Film in Dektol) There is a lot to commend 135, even with its Lo Fi limits. A lot of great scans from 135 on Flickr that show how creative people can get with it. Forget comparisons to other formats (including digital), now that 135 is no longer the standard for reportage and memento photography, we can enjoy it for what it offers, and it has a unique look worthy of praise. My TLR lenses treat 135 flim much better than my SLR lenses, but since I'm often going for content of a personal nature, it hardly matters. That it's so much easier to carry and use 35mm gear does matter.
