I also note that those tests are with cameras that have sensors that are a couple of years old. It would be interesting to see how the K-5 does in comparison. Or the 645D. I know how well film would do when I'm shooting at 6400 and above. Well actually, I don't, because I don't particularly care for film at 400. Film has advantages and disadvantages, so does digital. There are a lot of times when digital will get you a better photo. If you prefer film, shoot where film has more strengths and quit whining. > > -- > PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List > [email protected] > http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net > to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow > the directions. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
