Re: Concerns About Moving to Digital (Quality of istD)

[Sam Jost]

pfff, dust, when I compare my old film scans to my *istD pictures I always 
asked myself 'how could I live with all those specks on film?' - well, I 
didn't knew better, now I do and I like the digital pictures way better then 
my old analog ones.

I don't see that as a problem that will prevent "getting the picture," so I
didn't mention it.  If dust, however, causes mechanical or electronic
problems, that's another concern, but I don't think it does.  I don't see
at as any more  of a concern than scratches, spots, or dust on a negative.
Maybe it is, but it doesn't seem that way.

What I did not see in your list (and I am only mentioning it "just in
case") is how problematic dust is/is not with the *ist-D/DSLRs.
Perhaps you don't mind the issue, I just thought to throw in one of
the reasons I am not keen to go near them with a bargepole.
