It&#x27;s a creative tool. And it&#x27;s not comparable to music production, because film has a <i>huge</i> influence on the end result, whereas in music you must have a very well trained ear to appreciate the difference.<p>I sometimes shoot medium format film and the <i>artistic</i> results are often better, albeit with lower fidelity. The reasons as far as I can tell are due to both technical constraints that force you to be more mindful of what you are doing, the unique way light is interpreted by film, and mechanically superior vintage optics.<p>Could I achieve the same results in post processing? Yeah, if I calibrate exactly to colour rendering of my sensor, figure out the correct white balance, colour space, and the necessary adjustments. Although, given that even DxO Optics with their FilmPack addon doesn&#x27;t give me the exact results I get from say Fujichrome Provia 100F film, I doubt that it&#x27;s that easy.<p>Telling everyone you&#x27;re vegan is hipster bullshit. This is just an artistic tool.
