They quickly stated that medium format was for slow-work only like portraits and landscape.<br><br>Why would I give up the convenience of a LCD-display and the possibility to use really high ISO? And why on earth would I use a positive film when negative films have so much more lattitude?<br><br>Well, the results made their digital mouths shut.<br>You can actually read the small text on the goggle-strap, and the client used 15 minutes with a loupe at the light table looking at the top 5 images. I doubt that he would spend so much time in front of a Raw-converter on a computer screen. <br><br>Tech details: Mamiya 645 Pro TL, Sekor A 200mm f2,8 APO, Fuji Provia 400F, f:11, 1/1000 sek<br><br><br><br>[img]http://foto.no/bildegalleri/images/170757.jpg[/img]Tue, 25 Dec 2007 04:39:11 GMTEirik Berger
