Ahhh. Now that is news, Mike. I didn't know the dcs-14n could make prints
<grin>.

And yes, I would say prints from the dcs-14n are pretty comparable to those
from 35mm. They have a slightly different look, but I don't think many folks
could tell except side by side.

Now, about that medium format comment <grin>. But, I guess that can be
excused, after all POP PHOTO used to have a cover blub about once a year,
"35mm now equal to 4x5". I would say you need 30mp to get to that 645 level,
60 for 67, and a 100 or so to touch 4x5. Being one of about five people in
the world who still shoot 4x5 handheld I can sit back and watch for awhile
yet <GRIN>.

Ciao,
