I have a full day photography course coming up at a bird of prey centre. I've been on digital SLRs for 5 years (initially a EOS300d, now a EOS 5d), but i've still got my old EOS500n in the cupboard thats probably seen less than 20 rolls of film through it
I know its not the best film camera by any means :shake::shake: but i thought it would be interesting to take it along and see how it compares against the 12Mp full frame 5d. I have a friend who can scan the negatives for me.
So given the shoot is part indoor posed shots and part outdoor flight what would be peoples recommendations...
Colour ?
B&W ?
ISO ??
I'm not so sure about B&W :shrug: , partly as i think colour would be better for the subject matter, and its more difficult to compare image quality to digital ?
I realise i can convert to B&W once i have the negs scanned but does that sort of defeat any benefit in IQ of a true B&W film ?? :shrug:
Many thanks for the advice
