For those debating the D-30...

2002-01-17 by Mark Carpenter

Here is an interesting link if you haven't seen it already. It shows quite 
well that an image can be sharp yet not have as much detail. The overhead 
door shot with the D-30 actually looks sharper to me (the edges are 
crisper), yet if you look at the "STUDIO 1" sign, you see that it doesn't 
have as much detail as the slide scan.

That being said, I still like the overall look of the (whole) D-30 image 
better; you just can't blow it up as much as you can the scanned slide.
