Dear all, A brief note regarding the Kodak ProSLRn. I have been using the DCS14n for a year now and have recently tested the ProSLRn. During the past year I have been in constant contact with Martin Woods at Kodak regarding the various 'issues' that have presented themselves during everyday use of the camera. It became clear to me that, being a new and relatively untested piece of technology, there were problems many of which Kodak were unaware of and initially would reject until other users came forward with similar problems. There were many 'real world' complications with the chip that clearly hadn't been obvious to Kodak during their R&D period. Digital is a young technology and manufacturers are still learning and developing, as are we. To their credit they have listened and constantly worked to improve the product and the new camera is a great move forward. During my testing of the new camera I have found that the colour shift problem with wide-angle lenses is still present, albeit in a slightly different form, but Kodak are aware of this and are working on new firmware which should sort this out. Kodak are now very attentive to the findings of professional photographers and I would suggest that anyone who is experiencing anything unusual in their images (no jokes please :o) should first eliminate any 'operator error' (since Kodak will assume this) and then contact Kodak with their findings, ideally enclosing sample files. The more information Kodak get from us, the quicker we will get the camera we want. The original camera was capable of truly great things, but with reservations and only under favourable circumstances. It was both a revelation and a frustration. The new camera, when the wide-angle colour problem is fixed, should be the standard by which all others will be judged. I hope to re-test with the new firmware and will post all my results for those who are interested. HTH cheers, Mark. ---------------------------------------- Mark Harwood Photography Studio12 The Waterside 44-48 Wharf Road London N1 7SF Tel: 020 7490 8787 Mobile: 07702 233721 ---------------------------------------- www.markharwoodstudio.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------- > Wow, it was my fault then. > > Matthew Ward > > =============================================================== > GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE >
