The guy is a well known troll. Once he makes some clearly irrelevant and/or ignorant claim, his next move is to change tack and disappear until the next fire flares up. Thanks for the heads up. The comments on everything I have see him reply to seem way off base... Stephanie |

Hi Stephanie, My style is to consider a scene, and shoot judiciously. I seldom have more than 2 or 3 frames of the same scene, and I shoot digital in the same way. As much as I try, I have a hard time treating digital this way. For one thing they are all difficult to manual focus because of the fine grained focus screens (optimized for brightness and AF use) they all use. Some of the lenses don't even have distance scales! None have DOF scales. I never used auto focus cameras before I switched to digital for this reason. Maybe the bottom line for me too is I know that I basically have unlimited shots I can take and they cost nothing except my time later sifting through them. With film, especially medium format and 4X5, each shot isn't cheap so I'm more careful. I started shooting medium format because I wasn't happy with the image quality from 35mm and I think I'm finding the same subjects that I couldn't get the look I wanted from 35mm, I have the same issues with digital.
