I had a "raging" discussion with my best friend last night, who is
visiting from T.O. He is a digital/S2 shooter, and had extreme
frustration with film, and claims that his digital shots are all
technically superior to anything he can get from a scan of any of his
film shots. I doubt that he has seen a top-notch scan from his negs,
but that is immaterial. The fact is, he is much happier and much more
succesful with digital.
But when he picked up my OM-1n and looked through the viewfinder, he did
make gurgly noises about the viewfinder. :-D
