“Film vs Digital”
I posted this question on Instagram, asking friends their opinion on “Film vs Digital” when it comes to these two photographs.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These are two frames from a recent photoshoot I did with @goingtothesunmusic
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Both were taken seconds apart with the same exposure settings. (ISO 800, f4, 1/600) The first was made with my #olympusom1 on #kodak #trix400 film and the second is captured with my #x100f
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There’s no right or wrong answer. I was simply curious to know if anyone else had a visual preference between the two. Do you like the crisp details of the digital? Or do you like the soft texture of the film?

I’ve been tormented by this question for the past year.
So much so, that I recorded a podcast talking about it, and how it’s actually a deeper question than just deciding between a medium and creative process…. it has more about my understanding the truth of my artistic voice.

And here’s another “Film vs Digital” with Misty Boyce that inspired the convo.
