I am just curious to get the perspective from people who shoot both as to when they reach for film. I recently bought a zenit RF to try this myself. Thx
The main thing about film for me is the "film look" in the colours, that I haven't been able to imitate with dslr. The second best thing is the better control over DOF combined with the usability of the older film cameras.
B&W-films are also great, especially when the light is low and the film needs to be pushed to ASA 1600 or higher. Love the grain.
And last but not least... with film you have to think more carefully about the photo itself, think what you do and how you are going to do it...
