Camera Talk

After much hand wringing and angst, I bit the bullet and found a clean, well treated, used Phase One P30 back for the Hassy. When I add up the cost of fresh C41 or E6 film and either processing or chemistry, my break even point is around 100 rolls or so. Skin tones and color reproduction is stunning...

Gene, my second digital camera was a Kodak SLR/n. Quirky as hell, but FF and color accuracy Nikon can only dream of, the ISO 6 setting is just amazing... Fast forward several years and I finally bought a D3 last fall, haven't shot too much with it, but it handles pretty much the same as the D2's, ju...

rich, if you're not adverse to older tech, a Umax Powerlook III with a transparency adapter works quite well, and let's you scan 8x10 as well. (OK, I'm an enabler...) Dirt cheap on ebay.
