膠片相機裏刪不掉的風景

People are divided in this throwaway society where things get abandoned easily and deleting anything is as easy as pressing a button.

這是個“且用且扔”的社會，一切都可以輕易丟棄，只要點擊一下按鈕什麼都能刪除。但這並非人人所願。

While digital cameras have taken hold of the art of photography due to their ubiquity, some shooters still hold a tight emotional connection to film cameras.

雖然使用數碼相機的攝影愛好者人多勢衆，把控着攝影藝術界，但還是有一些攝影師執戀於膠片相機。

In a disposable society, the choice between cameras also reflects people’s lifestyle choices.

在這個用一次就扔的社會裏，對於相機的選擇也是人們對於生活方式的選擇。

Enjoying the process

享受過程

Shooting in film can be labor intensive, and it never offers the instant gratification of seeing the image after clicking the shutter. But vintage camera lovers view shooting film as a fun and meaningful process.

用膠片拍攝是一件“苦力活”，即使在按下快門之後也不能即刻欣賞“成果”。但是，在膠片相機愛好者眼中，攝影更多的是一個過程，它趣味盎然、意義非凡。

James Alan Figy，the staff writer and photographer at Angie’s List in the US sees shooting film as an exercise in surprising oneself.

詹姆斯•艾倫•菲戈是美國本地服務點評網站Angie’s List的撰稿人兼攝影師。對他而言，攝影就是一場不斷取得驚喜的練習。

“It’s fun because I have to adjust the shutter speed and aperture manually,” Figy said. “Seeing which photos will turn out well once developed is always a surprise.”

他說：“（使用膠片相機拍攝的）樂趣在於我必須要手動調整快門速度和光圈大小。拍完後，想想哪些照片洗出來也許會成爲佳作也是件不錯的事。”

Craftsmanship

磨練技藝

Digital cameras provide unprecedented efficiency. People set them to auto mode and click the shutter before, all of a sudden, hundreds of ideal photos appear on the screen. Additionally, by utilizing imaging software, photos can be easily manipulated as well as displayed online.

數碼相機帶來了前所未有的拍攝效率。只要調整到自動模式，按下快門，分分鐘就有成百上千張完美之作出現在相機屏幕中。再加上圖片軟件，處理和上傳圖片更是輕而易舉之事。

As a result, people see thousands of photos on social media, like they walk by all kinds of restaurants on the street, but only a few can truly impress them.

於是乎，人們看見網上數以萬計的照片，就像路過街上各式各樣的餐館，但真正讓人印象深刻的作品少之又少。

Student photographer Zhou Yuting, 25, thinks shooting on film helps him slow down.

在今年25歲的學生攝影師周宇庭眼中，膠片攝影讓他的生活慢下來。

“This digital age makes photography relatively cheap, which deprives people of the enjoyment of the process of photography,” said the graduate business administration student at Zhejiang University of Technology. “Shooting in film allows me to put in all my thoughts and life experience before clicking the button, which gives me the feeling of being a craftsman.”

作爲浙江工業大學企業管理專業的一名畢業生，周宇庭說：“在這個數碼攝影的時代，攝影相對不再費力，而人們卻再也享受不到攝影過程所帶來的樂趣。膠片攝影讓我在按下快門之前，傾注思考與人生的體驗，而這個過程讓我覺得自己更像是一個工匠。”
