Looks a very interesting film. The concept looks like a cross between Slaughterhouse5 and 2001!

Best cinematography I remember recently is The Straight Story. David Lynch's best movie imo - low key, beautiful and moving - in a gentle life affirming kind of way.

Or will the next gen of DSLR type cameras kill off the video camera? I still think there are important ergonomic advantages either way, depending what you're doing.

If the powers that be want to introduce workshops etc as an advanced feature for paying members, maybe they should have thought of it a bit sooner as part of the PU Plus launch

Bit cynical to take an idea from the general membership and make it a pay-only thing!

I'm not sure about the need to wait for the moderators 'permission'. It might be best to obligate them to oversee - and intervene in - this stuff as little as possible! So... If we want to do this why not just do it within the existing forum structures, for now at least. For challenges and participatory stuff, we could use Your Photos.

I think a lot of the colour comes from his choice of shooting against colourful backgrounds, although I don't doubt he ups the saturation too. Overall I think the treatment is appropriate. I think it's wonderful what he does with fairly basic/cheap equipment.

Understood. I know you've had issues with digital, but I thought 35mm would have been your forte!

Perhaps your more a daguerrotype-era kinda guy?

The 7dayshop ones have worked well for me and I can't see any difference with the original one

BECAUSE you have just spent 900 quid

After such a purchase, most of up are on value beans for several months, and the thought of spending more on batteries than we have to 'just for the brand name' isn't gonna fly!

I like to shoot colour and then you have the option of converting to mono with all the usual black and white filters in Lightroom. So i'll try and find some of this film! I agree the colours can be great in the rain, especially when the sun bursts through momentarily.
