re: #29 steve

depends alot on the type of lights in the building and how the camera is set. Film was a lot easier to use. IMHO Outdoor color film used indoors went to the warm end of the spectrum while indoor filmed used outdoors went to the cool end of the spectrum. Ektachrome 200 went very blue at altitudes above 1000 feet

Film was most definitely NOT easier to use. Going from outside to inside meant having to change film, unless you wanted to use a flash, or have all of your pictures come out orange because the film was designed for daylight use, not lightbulbs. Nowadays, if I want to shoot in a cemetery and then go take shots in a church, I press a couple of buttons on the back of my Sony Alpha and I’ve changed film sensitivity for the type/amount of light. And I get immediate confirmation from a histogram as to whether or not I need to retake because I botched something.
