OK, I accept the extra quality will not show on the web.- Just curious about
the type of photography 6x7 format people are into, especially landscape
work and the ability of the format to sell pictures when compared with other
medium formats. On page 36 of his book "Professional Landscape and
Environmental Photography", Mark Lucock refers to the 6x7 format as the
'golden format' because picture editors need to do almost no cropping. This
one sentence has sold me on the 6x7 format, but I would like to get some
more opinions on this, especially from 6x7 users.
The question I am getting at is: Given any one photographer's ability to use
various medium formats to the best of her/his ability, will the 6x7 format
sell more pictures?
Being a Pentax fan, I am drawn to the 67II model but do not know a whole lot
about it. This why I would like to get hold of some books and have a look at
any recommended sites on:
A) 6x7 photography in general and
B) Pentax 6x7 model reviews/comments etc.
Thanks Guys,
Pat
