Digital BW, The Print

Tis true - local contrast is compressed when you squeeze a 17 stop SBR into
65536 shades of grey.  But that's a different subject - and it draws on
one's PhotoShop skills to work the image up into what you envisaged at
capture time.

Hi Tom, yes that's right. Got it. Compression is a given.
No doubt, local contrast is reduced, some would say far too much. The
art comes later..
