That's a turn up.

You always bring me back down to earth Austin. I have followed your 
objective answers to the digital debate for the last few weeks. I 
shoot 99% B&W on a hasselblad that has seen better days and am 
looking for a cheaper solution than a digital back for it. You 
seemed to know your stuff. How much better than a colour CCD as far 
as file size goes. I didn't phrase that well. Would that mean it 
would have three times as much detail? 

You know what I mean? Surely this would be a bloody good answer to 
someone like a Portrait photographer shooting all B&W. I can see the 
value in it and it's twice the price here.
