Good highlight and shadow detail, I would be happy with those results. But this was not done at most contrasty time of the day, right ? Do you think that jpg would remove some of the hightlight detail or it makes a difference only in shadows ? You have some realy nice pictures on photo.net by the way.

There is no comparison between jpeg and RAW. It's like night and day. Here's a shot I did yesterday to test the 28/3.5 for another member. It includes snow in bright sun and heavy shadow under a bench. You'll find detail in the snow and plenty of information in the sahdow. It was shot in RAW, and processed in PSCS. A bit of additional adjustment was done with the Shadow/Highlight tool in PS after conversion. There isn't a slide film in the world that can give you that much latitude, and I would guess that you'd have to scan a negative film and post-process to get a comparable result. But that's my opinion. Others may differ. Here's the shot, which is quite ugly by the way :-). > http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3155206 > > > > > If you are shooting jpegs, you are limiting things somewhat. > > > I also don't think digital has the latitude that film does, but I bow > > > to the knowledge of those who disagree with me on it. > > > > Shooting jpegs limits some shadow detail but that "detail" is mostly noise > > in my > > opinion. > > >
