Large format digital backs won't always be too expensive. I can see a tiled back of APS-C sensors selling for less than 2K in a couple of years. BTW, I didn't say ALL pros use digital large format. I said "they've been used by pro shooters for many years." Obviously, people who make their living from photography come from a wide spectrum that ranges from wedding shooters scratching out a living at bare sustenance levels and fine-art photographers who have to struggle to make ends meet all the way up to big-name commercial shooters who count their income in millions of dollars. And of course fine art photographers shooting large format are probably all shooting film. Although there are a few commercial shooters who also practice fine-art photography. Some quite successfully. Paul On Sep 1, 2006, at 9:02 AM, William Robb wrote:
