Mind you, he harps on about noise. I don't therefore understand why he didn't use a scanner with ICE? The digital cameras have automatic noise reduction in their software don't they, so why put the scans at a disadvantage? Also, he says that 4000dpi is his perceived maximum of information from film, yet he scans at 3200?
I don't doubt that the 1Ds 'could' match 35mm, but I have a problem comparing it to 645. The other issue in my mind is lattitude. I have yet to see a digicam with the wide exposure lattitude of negative film. Possibly 'narrow' slides, although I think provia is reasonably 'wide', so if the D1s can match that it aint bad. > -----Original Message----- > From: Mike Ignatiev [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 26 September 2002 13:46 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: OT: D1s review > > > http://www.luminous-landscape.com/reviews/cameras/1ds/1ds-field.shtml > > A pretty impressive comparison 35mm vs 645 vs Canon D1s -- > seems like D1s is a undisputable winner compared to 35mm, and > close to a tie with pentax 645.
