Digital, film, scanning comparisons

Digital, film, scanning comparisons

2003-05-19 by Martin Wesley

Here is a site I ran across last night with a lot of digital to scanned film comparision trials to for resolution, detail, etc. Also gives a close up look at the differences in some film sizes and different scanning resolutions. It may be of interest to some. Unfortunately color oriented rather than B&W.

Anthony,

Those are some interesting pictures. What printer(s) and inks are you using?
Software?

Julian,

You are under the impression he is trying learn something and use the
process. Trolls engage people hook, line, and sinker on lists in order to
_argue_. Nothing else. Several otherwise intelligent posters have fallen for
it here.

Don't forget that Anthony was kicked off the Leica User Group (LUG) twice.
Changed his email to get back on.

And, he is trolling rec.photo.equipment.large-format on usenet currently.
Not adding anything worthwhile, just inane, off-topic arguments.

These guys have absolutely no scruples about bombarding the list with their
infantile arguments. Out of five 25-message digests over the last two days,
there has been about 10-20 on topic messages. Guess I'm going to have to
drop the digest in favor of individual emails so I can plonk the repeat
offenders.

So this guy has been trolling "Street Photography", "Leica User 
Group", "rec.photo.equipment.large-format" and now this group!!!

How long is this going to last may I ask ?
Cheers,
Andre
