I forgot something, THE PICTURE (quality) IS NOT IMPORTANT "for a lot" of people? Are you crazy? I am posting this stuff in a photo forum inhabited by mostly photographers. They should know better than that unless all they watch is hillbilly shows like COPS, Pro Wrestling, AND Fear Factor. Thats not the demographic of this group I dont think makes any sense to say that. Vastly improved picture quality enhances motion pictures just as much it does still pictures...Come on with this stuff! jco

You should, however, realize that others might have a wildly different point of view and an opinion. That doesn't make them wrong, just different from your viewpoint. When you express your *opinion* as FACT and then argue with those who don't agree with those "facts," it incites anoyance. The HDTV "argument" was particularly obtuse. Yes the picture is better... quantifiably so. Yes the prices have come down... they are still not cheap. You fail to understand that for a lot of people, TV is not very important... whether the picture is NTSC or IMAX, it doesn't matter to them. It's a *personal choice* on their part that you need to be able to accept and understand. -Cory -- ************************************************************************ * * Cory Papenfuss, Ph.D., PPSEL-IA * * Electrical Engineering * * Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University * ************************************************************************ * -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
