Anyone Still Use a Film Camera for Model Photography?

I don't have a digital SLR with changeable lenses. I have a Kodak EasyShare digital. The maximum f-stop is only f-5.5. Not that good for model photography. I have more control of the depth of field with my film SLR camera. It has a lens with an f-stop of 22 which is better for model photography. The higher the number the depth of field (smaller the aprature) the sharper the focus between what's in front of the camera, the subject and behind the subject. A pinhole lens is f-90 or higher but they're expensive. <br /> <br /> The digital is good for setting up the shot and judging lighting. Lighting position and intensity is the tricky part. Shadows are a pain to deal with. It'd be great to shoot everything outdoors.
