I saw that too. Man that's some pricey gear.

I can't quite figure out why anyone would want to go to all this trouble.

Tony, just think of all the money you will save on drum scanning. :biggrin: :wink:

Erik, I've been interested in some of the things I've read over at the Luminous Landscape. There's one thing that is always a stumbling block for me - the quality of the photography posted. Just looking at the Arches portfolio has many images that I think would be throw-aways by most people that I see post here. I hate to be harsh because the articles do seem in-depth, but ignoring all the technical aspects of photography and digital capture and various comparisons, I don't think the true nature of landscape photography is portrayed there. Perhaps I've not perused enough of the galleries - I'm still on dial up in my defense (if that is a defense), at least for just a couple of months until I get hi-speed. Right or wrong, the opinions expressed don't hold the same weight for me as if Marc had posted it. Not to offend anyone liking the site or the photographer, just an opinion.
