There are also plenty of tests which prove the contrary too and in each case the difference is small enough to be irrelevant at the end of the day. But from an equipment cost perspective it's probably still better value to shoot MF film and scan than to buy a full frame body. That said my SO recently returned from a business conference with a USB memory stick full of shots from the proceedings. A couple of group shots were made using a Canon 5D and they looked good though the faces didn't show quite the level of detail that I would expect from similar shots made using my Mamiya 7. -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
