Film

There's a huge variety of film out there. Each have their own look and style. The films I have listed are for general purpose, and do not reflect a preference.  This is more for the amateur who is not familiar with the nuances of film. It is a general guide only.

Kodak Royal Gold 100

Fuji Velvia 50

Description: Color Negative Film Description: Color Slide/Transparency Film.
Great film for general photography outdoors in bright
light and overcast conditions. Reproduces skin tones
quite well and is very tolerant of exposure errors. Generally, this is the kind of film you want to use for most exposures.
Excellent slide film for bright daylight exposures. Unfortunately it is very unforgiving when it comes to the range of light it can
reproduce. Unless you are extremely experienced with slide film, it is best you leave it alone. I use slide film and prefer slides, but, it's merciless when mistakes are made.

How To Expose Film

If you have no idea on what you are doing, the best thing to do is to open the box, and read the instructions.
The lens openings and shutter settings that are listed will give good results under most circumstances.

 

Digital Cameras

I'm not an expert on digital cameras.
I have used them on occasion, but currently
still prefer film. The cameras are getting better
and the prices are really coming down for the
35 mm SLR's which will really get the digital
boom going.  Most of  you use digital cameras
will know more about them than I do. Just point
and shoot.
If you do shoot film, you can send the image in either the .tif, jpg, or .bmp format.
You can also send prints up to 8 inches by 10 inches.
Try to keep the files size to approx 500k or less per image.
