Honestly I disagree with most of his points, I grew up using film, film especially Kodachrome where you had to be right on, but because of that lots of photographers’ bracketed the film same problem he is talking about doing with digital, I do agree that check the lcd or reviewing gets in the way of shooting, but waiting two weeks to see what the film looks like is not helpful either. Having the ability to see what one shot as soon you get home on the other hand is extremely helpful to learn from the shoot.
I think people need to learn more about how there camera operates with any media either film or digital, what are Shutter Speeds, Aperture, DOF, and ISO etc.
You do not need film to learn these controls; one could make the argument that it far easier to learn shooting digital.
The article just sounds like an old man saying unless you did it the original way you will never learn, and this criticism is coming from an old man
I love film, for film not because it is a better teacher
