Originally posted by jcdoss Whats the procedure for participating in SIC with a film camera? Since I've been running about town armed with both digital and film units lately. I'd like to run the DIC with digital and the SIC with film. It works out great since I typically shoot a whole roll with one lens anyway.
I'm about to order a hundred feet worth of either Kentmere 400 or HP5+ (suggestions welcome here, too)hoping it'll arrive in time.
Lens still tbd!
I hate to say it, but don't really think film is a fit for the daily challenges... At least not if you're wanting comments/feedback. It's of course fine for personal goal/accomplishment though... I could be wrong, but from my finite perspective it seems best to stay current to the day with the challenge if you're wanting visits/comments. Even for those who post a few days behind the current day, it seems their posts get very little attention from the majority of challenge participants (including myself, try as I may to visit back through all the prior days when I fall behind...). This is only going to be more so the case when you're bulk posting weeks behind with your scanned film shots.
I wonder if anybody has tried or suggested to post daily film shots in the next month... Take your daily shots in January for example, then post your January 1st shot on Feb 1st, and so on.... That would be an alternative way to keep current with the flow of the challenge, if deemed acceptable... Or maybe a modified version of this, based on however long it takes you to get through your roll and see it through to digitized.. Maybe you post your January 1st shot on January 15th, but put the actual date it was shot in the description, and so on...
