100% with you, one of the big reasons I shoot film is to remove hours in editing. I’m a perfectionist and my digital files were never finished, I was constantly tweaking dials in Lightroom. Now with film, I only adjust the exposure if I need to and I let the film do the rest, it’s a huge cheat code for me personally

Leonardo DaVinci says we do never finish art, we abandon it. Well, film is already born abandoned 😂

100%!!!!!

Agree, it’s a huge cheat code. To me it started when I got my first digital Fuji and started playing with the film emulations/recipes. Film was the final trigger i pulled in this January, and I’m never coming back.

I tried film simulations too, some of them are great, classic chrome is gorgeous but it just moved to move editing anxiety from Lightroom to inside the camera!
