Erwin Puts On The Fundamental Differences Between Film and Digital Imaging

I think people using colour film who are not scanning are missing out, at least for larger than 8" by 12" prints. Even for 4 x 6 prints, without scanning you have little if any control of the contrast or colors in the print and this matter just as much for small prints as large. True larger prints will have more to be gained but there is still a lot to be gain for smaller prints. Scott |

Erwin Puts On The Fundamental Differences Between Film and Digital Imaging
In much the same way that DVDs have just joined VHS, or film simply
joined glass plates. How about the way cds have joined lps and 45s, or the way lps and 45s joined 78s or the way 78s joined cylinders? We all know that radio has continued to have the same high quality comedy, drama and variety programs that dominated the airwaves before television, and of course so many of us still take those fast packet boats to Europe and back. -- http://www.chapelhillnoir.com home of The Camera-ist's Manifesto The Improved Links Pages are at http://www.chapelhillnoir.com/links/mlinks00.html A sample chapter from "Haight-Ashbury" is at http://www.chapelhillnoir.com/writ/hait/hatitl.html "sobolik" wrote in message ... "This is again proof of the classical adage that a new medium does not kill the previous one, just joins it." I like reading rational approaches to the subject compared to emotional ones. Photograph is like any other thing as long as there is a market there will be supplies. There is a huge market restructuring under way right now. That restructuring is not really reflective of rabid photographers needs and wants, just the masses. The muscle car era can be said to be done and dead by looking at the present market for the masses. The rabid Muscle car enthusiast has no trouble however. I do not care if the masses embrace the digital such and such. I will still be able to pursue what ever I want including the Super 8 that is mentioned. I will still be able to take a 35mm photo of the guy as he takes fashion photos with his cell phone.
