I'm not sure what you mean(?) IMO the MZ-S photograph might as well have been taken with my K1000. Under these conditions (the bikes and me was not moving, the light conditions were not changing fast) the photographs would have been identical, although I might have shot at f5.6 and 1/1000 sec. or f8 and 1/500 sec. In paractice no siginificanvt difference.

You are of cource all right. DOF, colour cast, and frame format gave it away. The first one is from a Sony, the second from a Pentax. The correct exposure values are Sony: f6.3, 1/1250 sec Pentax: f8, 1/750 sec I used better aperture for the analog picture to try to compensate for DOF, but this difference was aparentlly too small. You were right about the color cast as well (Sony pushing blue). All so the red seemed more orange in the Sony picture. I do believe, that the colours of the Pentax picture is closer to what the scene looked like in my eyes that day (Sunday, May 24th 2004). I have tried to scan the analog negative at higher ppi. An enlargemenet shows (not surprisingly), that the analog picture has much better resolution, than the 5 MP SONY picture, though. I am, however, still quite amazed that the small, cheep SONY (paid 700 USD for it, used 1 year) performes so well. I paid almost twice as much for the Pentax (MZ-S, Grip, SMC FA 1.4/50mm - used 1 year); 1200 USD. I wonder how much better the Pentax *ist D will perform, should I ever get one.
