Re: About to buy a 645N.........

2007-03-28 Thread Peter Jordan
The two inspire me to a very different style of photography.

Since getting an istDL, I've found myself using it in a much less 
thoughtful mode, using the digital experience to take several shots of 
the subject with varying exposures, angles, focal lengths etc.

When I use my 645 I find myself spending far longer taking a photo and 
making sure that I have exactly the shot I want before I press the shutter.

There is probably a trade of between satisfaction (from the 645) against 
error proofing and convenience (with digital) for me.

I do tend to switch between the two, depending on what I'm doing and 
where I'm going

 Seriously ... I love working with the 645 but I still toss and turn  
 over whether to actually buy one. I've hardly looked at it in months.  
 The K10D, on the other hand, is happily collecting 300-400 photos per  
 week for me.
 
 Good luck with it. And enjoy the couch. ;-)

Actually, if anyone thinks they'll want the  digital when it comes down the 
tubes... I've noticed on ebay that NOW is a very  good time to buy lenses. 
Prices are good. After it comes out, they won't  be.

I meant to send it to you after you left it, I can't believe you travelled 
that far to recover it.
