Default Still professional journalist photography dead?




"RichA" wrote in message ps.com...
According to an editorial in Amateur Photography, still pro photography
for news is being replaced
by video. Single video images can be used if needed.


This would be hard for me to believe unless the video was
well-shot 1080p, in which case individual 2-meg 1080x1920
frames could be used. I have successfully upsized 480x720
(480x640 after proportion correction) Mini-DV (interlaced,
with no motion in the frame) frames large enough to look
good on DVD covers but I would not use this for general
purpose stills...
