Re: [Digital BW] Digital sharpness vs film- Canon D60

2002-09-07 by sm7bxd

Hallo Austin and Jerry,

Yes, everything has it's limits.
What about the limit of this:
http://www.dpreview.com/news/0209/02090601sinar22mp.asp
It's a 22 Megapixel back for MF?

But of cause it's not like a D60.  

Something for us to test and take interest instead of the D60?
I have the body and lenses - I just need this back to test if it's 
better than Technical Pan and Technodol on MF???

What do you think? I think I would get rather good prints on a 1290 
B/W with this back. But I think Techn. Pan and some Technodol cost me 
less?

Everything is a matter of taste, religion, technics and money!
Don't ever try to convert anybody - everyone has a right to has 
his/her opinion and religion. As long one is pieceful - that is!

By the way - try Minolta Multi Pro with VueScan - trash the Minolta 
software for negative film! (A new Minolta software is to be expected 
in some weeks though..)
