I think that current digital SLR images are well below the quality of 67. I do not know anything about that patent at all. I did not bring that patent up.

Maybe he thinks (application of) the patent you posted will reduce the noise and/or improve the dynamic range to the level of the 6x7 format. I think he will be disappointed. Maybe not if he thinks that the current digital images are *only just* below the quality of the 6x7, but if he is of the opinion that they are a lot poorer and the "no-brainer" feature is "just stick in a hardware component that will remove all the noise"... - Toralf -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
