Amen.
As far as digital goes, it just comes down to trying it, or at least
being open to it. I know that I personally had no interest in it as
recently as a year ago. Then I saw some prints...surprise, they're
pictures, not cheesy pixellated amalgamations of bad snapshots.
The proof is in the prints.
Again, I'll probably wait till I can get some gear that'll produce a
decent 11x14 at EI 1600. I'm also interested in seeing some specs for
the MZ-D.
