I must admit I haven't done much work to the digital files. I did sharpen them, though, but that didin't help much due the the low resolution. These crops were somthing like 100x100 pixel. That's not a lot, is it? Up rez'ing them wouldn't help either, I'm afriad. More exposure would perhaps have helped a too, but still not enough, I believe.
Of cource it's not quite fair comparing af 16-24mm sensor image to a 58x58mm slide. I would certainly not have used 35mm film for a group shot like this either. I will, however, try to make group shots with the K10D, just to see how much difference 66,7% more pixels will actually make. I will, however, certainly bring some Velvia, a 6x6 camera with a Xenotar lens too. Just in case :-) Regards Jens Bladt Nytarkort / Greeting Card: http://www.jensbladt.dk/godtnytaar2007/lydshow.html http://www.jensbladt.dk +45 56 63 77 11 +45 23 43 85 77 Skype: jensbladt248 -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] vegne af Godfrey DiGiorgi Sendt: 21. januar 2007 23:13 Til: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Emne: Re: Film vs. Digital - not a religion You've stated you are producing a group shot for the web, not for printing. You put a bunch of unexposed, crappily rendered JPEG clips up as comparison to your scanned and sharpened 6x7 clips, at double the size they'll appear compared to the illustration here: >> This one wasn done with a Pentacon Six: >> http://www.jensbladt.dk/Nykoege/images/Byraad-gruppe-20x30-web.jpg to say that it won't be good enough. That's just ridiculous, Jens. Learn digital exposure and rendering first. Then complain that it won't be adequate quality if it isn't for the purpose at hand. If I had the time, I would set up a test shot and let you be the judge. I have no photographs of 30 person groups to work with, unfortunately ... They're not something I've had occasion to produce in the past 30 years.
