OK, I took your advice to Google him. Sorry, but I doubt his being an authority on digital cameras:
--- Quote ---In 1969, he abandoned film making and escaped to the desert in Morocco, at which time his career as a falconer began.

If you take the celebrities and the money points out of your argument it looks like:
--- Quote ---My late friend, Bob, was cameraman for the Joe Bloggses and was friends with Dave from the pub, and did promos for the Stinky Pinks (He lived next door to them) and also The Dumbells. He worked extensively with the Gordon Bleus, and when he told me something, I’d take his word for it over anyone alive, as he REALLY knew his stuff. He was no “ amateur photographer“, you can Google him if you like.
Film is better. He’s got cans of unseen footage, many many stacks of which I lifted with my own hands when he moved house. Each can was worth a MINIMUM of circa £2 to any number of media outlets, and he had around 200 of them.
I’ll take his word on film being best, apart from it being my own informed view too. Colour range of natural substances cannot be anywhere NEAR “emulated” by pixels.
Google him, he was cleaner for the local council estate, and friends with Bill, Mike, ex boyfriend of Shelley… yes I’m name dropping, because he’s a legend of snuff video production, he KNEW his stuff back from when he began.
Sorry and all that, but he was an authority on film and that’s how I see it.

He’s owned more cameras (film and digital) than you’ve worn socks. He had an Ampex splicing/editing suite in his front room. I worked extensively with him for MANY years, and he was and is adored by film and media societies worldwide, because he was widely regarded as the pioneer of the pop video.
Your cursory research doesn’t tell you anything. Keep learning old bean. :)

Facetious mockery doesn’t negate a thing. You lose any credibility automatically from that churlish response.
