If we think about it for a second, it may strike us that the digital revolution is nothing but an easy summer breeze. In a global perspective that is.
Still most people around the world doesn�t even has electricity, and therefore certainly no DLSR.s. I don�t think the film is dead! /Joakim -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Fr�n: Paul Stenquist [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Skickat: den 14 december 2004 12:54 Till: [EMAIL PROTECTED] �mne: Re: The film is dead I believe that somewhere in the world there may be some enlargers and some operators who can make optical prints from 35mm negatives that are superior to a good inkjet print from a 6 megapixel image. But even the work of the best pro lab in this area isn't up to snuff. I know I can print BW from 6x7 with my Schneider Compuron-S that is superior to BW from my digital. However 35mm printed with my Nikon 50/2.8 is merely comparable, although perhaps more classic because of the grain and superior grayscale. However, I can't get a stunning color optical print anywhere around here, and Detroit is a city of big studios and top-dollar pros. Of course they all shoot digital now, so there's really no need for a good optical lab support system. Yes, I said it was a plastic toy. I was wrong.
