I don't have any examples from my own film photography handy, but a quick google brings up https://www.35mmc.com/10/01/2015/low-light-fun-ilford-hp5-ei... 3200ISO on black-and-white film was pushing it pretty hard. Yet these pictures look good, in a noisy kind of way. Let an algorithm loose on them and it'll "fix" things, first and foremost by smoothing the skin. Even older low-end dedicated digital cameras do this, some brands more than others. The pictures in low light feel more like a badly done painting than a good, honest, albeit noisy photo. One possibility is that the noise from a digital sensor is not as uniformly pleasing as that from film, so it must be masked. |
