Dear Sonia,

I got one (DS) for some strange reason and luck. I was sceptical about
35mm
Format digital but this camera is the end for film in some aspects.
I only had it for 2 weeks and shot pictures in raw format.
To push things to the limit I tried 1200 ASA in near darkness
inside with candlelight, tungsten an a mini HMI in the back ground, kind
off hoping it would fail. I saw BLUES in a painting that my eye could
not see!!! - I also tried 4 sec exposures (at f1.00 50mm  and f 1.2 on
the 85mm)
It is so good that you have to cheat in postproduction. The camera and
software makes the pictures look so good that it does not feel like a 
low light picture that we are used to. 

I have not read the manual yet, (no discipline!!) but I played with some
off
the Software, like take remote shots straight into the computer. 1 or 3
or 20 shots every sec. Or every 90 hrs etc. the poss. Are endless and
opens the mind to new poss.- The "stitcher" comes with it. No idea if it
is the full
blown version. Have to wait for spare time to find out.

This Camera turned me into a little boy again. I think I can use it for
Advertising after I printed a 44" print on a 10600 Epson that is not
even 
profiled. 

There is one big problem with that Camera: I have not paid for it yet.

Regards, Andreas

Subject: [PRODIG] DCS14n or EOS1Ds???

Is anyone out there a Canon EOS-1Ds user??  I heard on the grapevine
there
were about 150 in circulation in the UK. If so what do you think ?
The reviews at www.dpreview.com sound impressive...

I have been waiting for the Kodak DCS pro 14n to arrive, but since its
delay
I've been wondering if the Canon is a better bet. There does not seem to
be
any in-depth reviews of the 14n to be found on the web that feature
photographers who have actually used it out.
