Those Digi pics
Since I started posting Love Thursday pictures I've been going through the numerous pictures on my computer.The majority of these pictures are digital with the remainder being some analog ones that I scanned.
Truth is the digital pics are sharper, picture taking is much easier and downloading is a charm. However, lately I find myself being nostalgic for the almost extinct analog camera. Among other things the cost of transferring digital pics into hard copies is quite high.That must explain why I have only converted about three pics.Let's not forget also the constant recharging of batteries and the annoyance when the batteries just give up on you.
Ever so often I identify the ones I want to convert to wallet size,regular size,etc but it never gets done. Before digicams were the rage I would have had all my photos processed and at a much cheaper rate too.I also find the analog pics to be more true to life in that we don't have the option of deleting until we get the pefect picture.
Yet,I still can't see myself reverting to the dinosaur camera assuming I even remember how to use it. So to satisfy my love for traditional photo albums I would have to start the process rolling and soon.

Girl, I know what you mean. I'm actually going to the store tomorrow to buy some photo paper to start printing all this pics I have of my son! I was actually grateful for the gift of a disposable camera the other day. What I need to do is start backing up these photos before my computer crashes. That would be a drag!!

is different here. its actually cheaper to process digital photos. i prefer the analog too. something about the suprise cause ya cant go look and see how the shot actually turn out and the like
Prices here range from 3.50 to 5.00 EC per pic.I think you get reduced rates depending on the number.
When I saw the title, I thought it had to do with Digicel. I like them too. The click, the film, etc.
I don't miss the conventional film camera at all! The digital camera is one of the best things since sliced bread! It's good for all the reasons you mentioned, and I don't have to worry about how many pics I take!
35mm to digital is like electricity being invented! Night and then day! LUV IT!! Some still claim analog is better though.
Jdid is right getting digital printed is very cheap in the U.S. especially if you do it via the online outfits.
