How often do you shoot film? I just got an AE-1P.
this is one of my favorite photographers on IG. Glad Through the Lens finally got around to him.

When I first got into film I was shooting almost everyday, the problem was the quality of my shots was trash. 36 exposures and maybe 5 were decent. I've slowed down since then and now my philosophy is every shot has to be quality, if not I'll just pull out my DSLR and call it a day. I've been hoarding rolls of film for a few months now, I think I'm up to 25 rolls on deck. The way I'm buying film now is not really hurting my pocket, film can get expensive real quick though. The AE-1 is dope, you can get crazy mileage out of that.
Do you have a spot to develop/scan/upload your film?
Yea, there's a place online I send it to called Thedarkroom.com. I shot my first roll and paid for the development and print and still havent sent ot off. Ive just been busy as shyt. I kinda feel like film is the true test, ot wven on some corny hipster ish, I just feel like it shows when you know your ish. Probably why I havent sent mine off yet lol

what would y'all say is the most important part of getting these CLEAR pictures
camera, lens, editing, or something else?
I currently have a D5300.. 2 prime lenses, 2 kits... the pictures are in focus and coming out clear, but i see some of these in here and it's like i'm looking at it in real life
on another note, i've been playing around in lightroom with my latest pics, and finished up my first ever batch of edited photos
i've had this camera about 8 months now, and i see exactly what I'm doing wrong. a lot of bad framing.. a lot of extra shyt in the picture that should have been cleared off before i took it.. and having zero knowledge of photoshop where i can edit out things i don't like..... but again... this is my first time so be gentle
but i'd definitely like some advice on what you like and don't like about these.. i'll upload 5-10 of what i think were my best so far. so on the next batch i can do them a little better
