Sorry Winsor, but you have not persuaded me of its superiority to 35mm.
It cannot record the same range of luminance and you cannot produce a
reasonable print of the same size as a scanned 35mm slide, let alone
one enlarged and processed in a darkroom. And who, of any credibility
would suggest that it would surpass MF in quality?
A colleague at work has a D60, for which he paid over £2000 sterling;
that camera is not obsolete, but it is much less attractive to him than
the latest Canon kit (oh, and it is pretty big).
