I don't take much they/he have to say too seriously, anymore. It used to be, back in the day of the D2000, it was only 35mm film that digital had an quality advantage over, now it is MF, too. Hmmm... That is not to say that the 1Ds isn't a great camera, and that it's results shouldn't equal most 35mm results, I just take what LL has to say with a grain, or more, of salt.
