Hi Dan,
I'm about 60% digital shooting right now, with a Canon D60 and a
small P&S. Waiting for PMA announcements.
Film is mostly B&W in M cameras (too many cameras, too many lenses)
and transparency film in SLRs (also too many cameras, lenses!) and
when on holiday, in M's as well. I enjoy good transparencies
projected on a large screen a great deal, and that is one area that
digital can't touch yet at any price, let alone a competitive price.
Interesting travel destinations will be recorded with slide film
until security/airline regulations make that impossible.
Colour and B&W in Fuji TX-1, Horizon, Rollei 35S etc.
Also larger film in Mamiya 645, Mamiya 6, Noblex, Hasselblad, RF
backs, various 4x5 (Ikeda, Sinar, Cambo). B&W and colour neg.
B&W film processed here, colour and some chromogenic B&W sent out.
Colour neg and some transparencies scanned (Nikon 8000 and Epson) and
printed via Macs on Epson 2200. Larger stuff sent out.
B&W printed in wet darkroom 90%; Focomat Ic and Beseler 4x5.
'Darkroom' vs. 'Lightroom' - 30:70. It's a bit hard to say, as some
stuff starts out with film, gets scanned, and then printed out of
house in various ways. I find that I print (or view on a projection
screen) a much higher percentage of the film I shoot than the digital.
