http://www.widerange.org/resolution.html I'm not sure I agree with the methodology of the 6 Mpix to 4x5 Velvia comparison, but there are some very nice mountain pictures on the main site. http://www.widerange.org/ |

http://www.widerange.org/resolution.html Why post a link without comment, Mr "." Are you shy? (O; That's a 4"x5" camera being compared to 6Mp "DX" dslr, yes? That's a 120mm x 95mm capture area, compared to 24mm x 16mm... I would have to ask... why? |

Nikon D100 vs 4x5 field camera side-by-side enlargement
The 6MP DSLR camera seems to "create" its own "details"?
I can see patterns I can't find in the 4x5 crop........? It is interresting to see how it should have looked like......and how the DSLR "manipulates" the real world :-) "." skrev i en meddelelse ... http://www.widerange.org/resolution.html |

It is probably PhotoShop which did something........ But a brigwall test using a DSLR could be interresting and make a 100% crop of an area and then a full frame macro shot of the same area to see how the DSLR handles the details it can't handle......or how should I explain.......to see if the DSLR creates its own reality. It has probably been done many times........ |

"New" technology same "Old" problem. Want to resolve more detail? Go to a larger image format. A simple expensive solution. Now if I could get up the courage (and funds) to get an 8x10" camera and a drum scanner to go with it. :-) |

Maybe it is because I have so many nice old analog cameras I want to use......e.g. Voigtländer Prominent, Koak Retina IIIc, Contax II, Kiev 4a etc :-) |

A good scanner and printer will make you look at your films a different way then optical printing will allow and makes pretty digital prints much easier. I was less then happy with anything I ever did in the darkroom, but the same films scanned are truly lovely. Just keep using the cameras; don't let them get too dusty. :-) |
