I was thinking about the same thing. Most of them don't match up to the standards I have today, I would probably delete them on the spot, if I had taken them with a digital camera but I do like seeing them now.
I don't know if we are more forgiving with film or we are exaggerating with the capabilities of modern cameras. I mean looking at a file taken with a 30 megapixel sensor, at 100% and wanting everything to be absolutely sharp is too much. How many of our pictures are going to be printed on 1 or 2 meters long paper to claim such detail? And yet we do. And when we downsize them they look almost too perfect to be real.
And yes, I don't think that I can recreate this feeling digitally either. But maybe an AI can :)
