Is this a criticism aimed at dSLR owners? Sure sounds like it. <g> The
reason there is so much talk about dSLRs on this list is because there are
more dSLR owners than scanBuck owners! Also, there is a lot of common
ground, such as Photoshop, color management, printing, etc, and posts tend
to centre on that rather than dSLRs specifically.

I think Mike Russell runs a list for scanBuck owners. You may find his list
more up your street. Sorry, don't have the sub info. Contact him off list...

Surely every customer is a serious customer? There are uneducated customers
and educated customers, customers with bucks and customers with megabucks,
customers with nous and customers with no nous but all are "serious"
customers.

If you "appreciate" waving trees, you should see the work of a master
photographer like John Blakemore who uses large format, makes exquisite
prints (sans color management) and makes waving trees do his bidding!

Large format, multishot or scanBucks quality-do-not-make. I've visited many,
many photographers sites and am appalled at the lack of vision. You could
give 95 out of 100 photographers (if sites are anything to go by) a 10x8
multishot/scanBuck that takes 16 shots in 500th of a sec and they would
still produce garbage. But give a Canon PowerShot to a master photographer
and get ready to drool over his 2mpx images! ;-)
