Doesn't rattle my world because I don't have $40,000 to dish out for a P45
digital back and I enjoy traditional B&W work with my view camera


Let the ****ing begin.

Digital makes a lot more sense for color than B&W. I get great quality B&W
from medium format & 35mm (and soon 4x5) and darkroom for 1/20 or less than
the cost of digital. I have yet to see a digital print that's the equivalent
of high quality photo paper. High quality, archival, low cost. For photogs
like us digital just doesn't add up.

You don't understand. Shoot 45 color and join the Rest Of The Informed.
