Curious whether Joe Cornish is still using film. Love his photos and have one of his books that while packed for a move, remains firmly in my mind as one of the best photography books I've "read". Saw him leading a talk on one of the filter sites (can't remember which) and sounded as though he made the jump to light speed ("Warp 15, Scotty!") aka digital. Nothing wrong with that. Simply wondering - now that I'm jumping into the LF film pool.... how big is this pool? And yes, I did trade in a bunch of gear ...and even allowed a Nikon D750 as one of the received items... so it's not as though one has to be irrationally attached to one and only one medium to "measure up". If I'm not mistaken, Leonardo DaVinci among others... mastered more than one medium and more than one field.
Mike: Thanks! THat's what I thought and where I thought I saw it, too. And yes, a Phase One back comes to mind. 100MB's will take you a long ways.... if you have Joe's eye, talent, access, experience, etc. Love his UK books, too.
I went on a course tutored by Joe in 2008, he went out on his own before the day started to photograph the dawn on an Ebony 5x4 film camera.
In Nov 2011 I went on another course he tutored, IIRC he had a pile of inkjet prints for sale, I think he was using a 45mp digital back by then ,so that would be about when he started on digital.
IDK if he still uses film as well.
He co-tutors some courses at a centre about 15 miles from my house during the summer months.
Sadly, the courses are all digital, but the adjoining cafe is excellent.......set among the mountains of North West Scotland.
I often see groups of photogs out on the hills with a tutor or two at this time of year. Colin Prior is another of those who runs courses locally to me.
