Hello, original author here. What I meant by “easier”: Consumer film is designed to be developed and scanned/printed by your lab. You then get a finished image. Most modern interchangeable-lens digital cameras are designed for you to shoot RAW and edit in software like Lightroom. Because I first started photography around 2010, I was taught at school to take pictures, then edit them on a computer. Shooting film for the first time was originally about trying something new in a hobby I enjoy. As stated, it removed the need to sit in front of a computer. “Easier”. I wish I’d stopped shooting RAW sooner. Trying film led to that realisation. (And I agree film can be a pain. I’ve ruined several rolls through both stupidity and cameras breaking. I still enjoy it.) |

I don't think I agree. The photos straight off my GH4 are perfectly fine as-is, it's quite a bit of work to get the same thing out of Darktable, let alone something better. I do still shoot in RAW, for those 1% where I do want to go in manually. (The GH4 isn't great in low light.)

I mean... yeah. But don't blame the camera for your personal habits ;)
