Not necessarily, in fact I think due to its linearity there is more data recorded in the highlight areas in digital captures. Shadow areas may suffer however, as they are expanded in relation to the gamma curve to which the linear data is mapped. I think the advantage in film still lies with its greater exposure latitude (in the case of negative films only) Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
