First off, a Blessed Christmas and New Year to all of you and your families!

I just found this site and imagine my surprise and delight that there is still a site that is not centered around digital! I have been shooting film since 1974 and this is one dog that really has no desire to learn new tricks!

I have a Nikon D700, but it will never replace my venerable Nikon F2's and my default camera, my Hasselblad 500 C/M. Digital certainly does have it's place, weddings especially where the volume is high and it was a pain having to carry three cameras around and a ton of film. All of my personal stuff, both color and black and white, is still shot on film and processed and printed in my darkroom. Until Kodak stops making 35mm and 120 film, I don't ever see that changing!

Hello and a warm welcome to APUG. Kodak, Ilford, Fuji and others will still be making film years to come. Have fun here at APUG!

Welcome from Iowa (most of the time) and Destin (the rest of the time). Hows the weather? I'll be heading that direction in a few days.

Welcome to APUG from SE WI. If you get tired of the heat, come north and enjoy the snow.;)

Thanks for the invite, but I grew up in NC and spent many years in WA while on active duty with the Army. Asheville, NC is a 7 hour drive from here so I can still find snow, I just don't have to shovel it! After tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, I have come undeniable conclusion that heat is uncomfortable (even 140º) but cold flat out HURTS! Bwahahahahahahahaaa!!!!!!
