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

2002-09-07 by sm7bxd

OK Jerry,

Thanks for your advice, I'll keep to Techn Pan and Technodol,
until I can afford that Sinar back for my Hassy. Or any other digital 
camera at about 22 Meg.

Until it happens, yes I will be happy with Techn Pan and my MF camera,
It's good enought for me. 

I can also get fairly good with that outfit, I hope as good as yours?

Though, the Technodol is wet.


Fiat Lux!
