The original post is intact below so you can refamiliarize yourself if you need to. I did say in my first post on the subject (this is my third, and last) that a view camera was better if the person is serious about architectural photography. I expect you just overlooked this. "> If you are serious about architectural photography, a view camera is > better." Anyway, for a more casual approach, an APS DSLR and the tools available in Photoshop are sufficient for many people. I realize that you are not one of these people, and that as far as you are concerned, anything less than a view camera is unsuitable for architectural photography, so we can drop this one now.
