Digital BW, The Print

I detect a strong element of social snobbery in your messages my man so I 
will no longer continue to discuss  anything more on this subject with you.

What a load of lod cobblers that lot is.

I have yet to meet one of the so called "ill informed consumers" who is not
more satisfied with their digital images prints than ever they were with the
film stuff.
In the UK it is now cheaper to obtain prints from a digital CD than from the
original negative.

Come sir....pull yourself together.

I am all there . . . the arms are attached to the thingy that holds the head
and the legs, etc.

A 3 megapixel camera produces a good quality print but when you start up to
8x10 or larger it doesn't hold it's own against a chromogenic negative/type
R print. I agree that it "appears" to be cheaper getting digital prints
done, but in the case of your average 4x6s a lot of the mass market will
still opt to get everything printed . . . a good one hour c41 lab will be
cheaper. The mass market likes the digi stuff because of two reasons . . .
it is fast, . . . and they have been told to. As for the home user, how many
have made the investment in time and equipment to get all of their digital
gear talking to each other in the same language? most likely a fractional
percentage above 0. This list is a fine example of the effort (lots of it)
to get everything to print right . . . and at a considerable cost in
equipment sometimes.

I stand by what I said, the consumer doodads are passable to good, no more
than that.
