*facepalm* seriously? Should? Because you know.. there is no other option? Why not just use digital then? Whole thing is - people like different looks. "Should" - doesn't enter into the world of artistic judgement.Quote:

Actually, it is a striking your own forehead with your palm, in disbelief that something very obvious has occurred, often accompanied with a loud 'DUH'.
Colloquialism.
Yup, that's us.Quote:

Well-well. I suppose I'm the one who was supposed to have a "facepalm" moment. Now maybe you-all boys are impressed with the artistic effect of strong halation in the highlights. Now some like that look and some don't, I reckon. And I'm one of the ones that don't. If you-all recall, there were two pictures in the original post, one in HP-5, and one done on non-backed ortho. The HP-5 shot had much less halation than the ortho picture had. Now if you looked at the snow in these pictures, perhaps you noticed that the ortho picture had many more tones and detail in the snow part of the picture than the pan film had. This is a characteristic of ortho film. But for me, at least, the ortho shot had overwhelming halation in it. So I stand by what I said, and maybe I'll enlarge on it a little. If you are going to shoot into the sun, even in the woods, use a backed film. What ortho film still available has an anti-halation backing? Kodak Ektascan is the only one I know of. Now in my salad days, all consumer ortho film was backed, and had been since about 1920. The whole bit about shooting with the sun behind you, or over your shoulder comes from film made in the pre backed era. I, perhaps incorrectly, presumed that the photographer of the two original pics was comparing the halation differences between the ortho film he chose to use and HP-5 (which is backed) and wanted to know if this was typical of ortho (X-ray) film in general.Quote:
