The Home of the Hybrid Photographer

Hey all, its been quite a while since my last update on LifeInDigitalFilm. Well, thats mainly because I have been insanely busy.Been writing a lot for X-Equals and working on a few special projects over there. Plus I have been doing some intensive work with testing SilverFast and VueScan in depth, to bring both complete reviews and complete scanning workflows.

I would like to than all of my readers for their continued support, especially through these times I get so busy with other work that I can’t find time to get fresh content up here. I am currently working with Brandon at X-Equals to bring LifeInDigitalFilm a bit more in step with the X-Equals operation, which would lead to more regular posts.

The first step I am taking with Brandon is moving all my preset packages that are for sale over to X-Equals, where Cold Storage is becoming part of the X-Equals Preset Platform. From there we will see what other changes may come, because I don’t know for sure yet either.

Next, there is going to be an even more decisive shift in direction at LifeInDigitalFilm. I feel that its time to move past the presets and become a full fledged film and hybrid photography blog. From here on out, 90% of everything posted to LifeInDigitalFilm will focus on film photography and scanning. There will be some Photoshop and Lightroom pieces, but there will be no more Film Emulations released on LIDF.

That is not to say the free emulations already up are disappearing, or that there will be no more. I will continue to make film presets for Lightroom, but I feel they no longer fit our scope here. So, to be sure you get my future film emulation presets please sign up for the X-Equals digest, where I will continue to release my presets for free. X-Equals is more centered on Lightroom than LIDF is, so its only fitting that I release my new presets there. So if you are not already signed up with the X-Equals digest, do so.

New posts will resume shortly here on LIDF, so please bear with the changes.
