Hi all on the list,
Here in Sydney Australia, I have my film processed at 'Vision Graphics'
St Leonards, (have shot a few weddings in the past couple of years) They
are known as one of the best pro labs in Australia. I asked the lab what
percentage of film/digital comes in for weddings, they say its running
at about 70%film/30%digital at the moment. They say the film shooters
find it's easier and less time consuming to get the right colours/look
happening with their FUJU NPC/NPH and Kodak Portras than it is with
digital. They mentioned quite a few had tried shooting weddings in
digital and had returned to film for this reason. I hope film remains
for some time fo the above reasons and I don't really want to retire my
EOS 3 bodies and Mamiya 645 kit just yet.
Mark.

I just went to a small rally in support of Denmark. There were
TV film crews and several PJ's there.
I was really surprised (and sort of pleased) that many of the PJ's
were using high end Canon film bodies. I'm told that it's all gone
digital, but that's not what I saw today.
There were a ton of Nikon D70s and a few D200s and so on,
most with kit lenses - but these were being used by the protesters
and amateur photogs. A few low end Canon lower end DSLRs
too.
I'm an amateur and did my shooting with a D70 + 12-24/4 and an
FM3a + 105/2.5 AIS loaded with XP2 (I haven't been souping my
beloved FP4 and HP5+ for a while due to illness and fatigue).
