recently sold my digital camera for film. I must say I enjoyed the experience, despite the blurry photo.

I really like that film. If that last shot was at f8, it's very nicely done.

Welcome to the world of film. I dunno that I'd call any of those shots blurry, well you may have missed focus slightly on the third shot and the last shot was blurry because the subject moved, you didn't.

I dunno if I myself would have been so quick to pull the trigger on selling an A7s, though. It makes for a nice video unit, from what I've read and heard. The rough equivalent in film to the A7s's video capabilities would have been to buy a decent 16mm Bolex or Bell and Howell with lenses, and I suppose it could be argued convincingly that a full-blown 35mm movie camera with lenses, worth several tens of thousands of dollars, would still not meet the capabilities of the A7s and a small handful of Sony lenses.
