Precisely! The ones who were experienced with slide film had no trouble at all transitioning to digital. The ones who shot nothing but (or mostly) negative film were hopeless. A lot wedding shooters fell into the latter category. One even tried to blame us for his problems. (He shot JPEG and had white balance as well as exposure screwed up.) -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
