"...a holdover from the old days of shooting with film."
Yes, I read about "those days" in the history books. 😏 😏 😏
Apparently, photographs were taken on a camera (not a phone ) and then the "film" had to be developed at a store, then you waited for associates (strangers ) to process it - which could take days - then you had to return to that store to pick up your photos...and it wasn't free! You had to PAY money for YOUR photos (that strangers looked at! )
Frank, that all sounds crazy to me, but I guess that's how it was done. 🙄 🙄 🙄
Well, no need to be "stingy" anymore, take ALL the FREE pics you want - choose the very best (in seconds ) and post! 😀 😀 😀
You're making all that stuff up!! HA!
Yes sir; I shot a ton of film over the years and like a lot of us die-hard film buffs, went fighting & kicking into the digital age. And while I love my 50 megapixel cell phone camera, it still doesn't give me the complete set of tools that my 36.3 MP camera affords.
