The two inspire me to a very different style of photography. Since getting an istDL, I've found myself using it in a much less thoughtful mode, using the digital experience to take several shots of the subject with varying exposures, angles, focal lengths etc.
When I use my 645 I find myself spending far longer taking a photo and making sure that I have exactly the shot I want before I press the shutter. There is probably a trade of between satisfaction (from the 645) against error proofing and convenience (with digital) for me. I do tend to switch between the two, depending on what I'm doing and where I'm going Peter Godfrey DiGiorgi wrote: > Hey, are you trying to grab my shopping cart? ;-) > > Seriously ...
