Re: [Digital BW] Austins 7k scanning back(was D-60)

2002-07-25 by JimCollum

i think the price on the betterlight 6000 (6000x8000) is down to around 9K. 
I use one with the higher sensitivity sensor, and i get better results than 
4x5 film (either scanned or projected with an enlarger). Of course there 
are lots of gotcha's for landscape type photography, but it's unsurpassed 
for still life.
