Unlike digital photography, where images are recorded as electronic data, film photography relies on the chemical reaction between light and the crystals present in the film.

Here are some characteristics of film photography: Photographic films: Films, such as black and white film or color film, are exposed to light, creating a latent image that is then revealed by a chemical process (development). Development process: After shooting, the film must be developed in a laboratory to reveal the image. This process can be done yourself (in a "darkroom") or in a professional laboratory. Image quality: Film photography is often appreciated for its unique aesthetic rendering, including grain texture, colors and contrasts which can appear more organic and warm than digital photography.

Limited to a number of exposures: Film film contains a limited number of photos, making each shot more valuable. Equipment: Film cameras vary, from SLRs to compacts, and even instant cameras. Some photographers use traditional cameras, like Leica or Canon, which offer manual control and an authentic experience. Nowadays, film photography is experiencing a revival among enthusiasts and photographers looking for a tactile experience and a particular visual effect. It’s a process that invites you to slow down and think before capturing each image.
