Hi

I've continued using 35mm B/W film (scanned) for much of my landscape work
despite going to digital for my more commercial stuff (events etc). I'm now
looking at getting a 1Ds for the commercial side and was wondering if anyone
on the list uses one for B/W landscapes? If so, are there any lenses (primes
or Zooms) that work particularly well in this application?

I should hasten to add I'm fully aware of the numerous sites reviewing
lenses and bodies (dpreview, luminous landscape etc) I was just looking for
some observations from anyone with such experience?

Apart from the image quality/detail with wide angle lenses (24mm gets a lot
of use), one of the reasons I stuck with film was the robustness and
reliability of 'real' SLRs. Certainly of relevance when I'm scrambling over
the moraine at the toe of a glacier...

I should also add that save for an unexpected lottery win, MF digital and
other more 'exotic' solutions are out of the running for the landscape side
of things :-((


bye for now
