Otherwise, I would have been an engineer like my father. Well, that and the math. -----Original Message----- From: tedgrant at shaw.ca Sent: Saturday, April 12, 2014 10:42 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Comparing film and digital resolution Bill Pearce ASKED?" >>> But aren't there other "measurements" of the quality of our photos than >>> just resolution?<<<<<< Yer damn right there is!!!!!!!!! "IT'S CALLED CONTENT!" As far as I'm concerned in my many years of published assignments "the content" is the most effective part of the image! All this constant diddly whackie conversation about things like resolution is beyond me! It's nothing more than a form of technology advancement that will make the "reproduction" of a smashing great image look better. By the same token it'll make a crappy assed image look better! BUT THE CONTENT WILL STILL LOOK LIKE A PILE OF COW DUNG! For crying out loud, the photograph is a recording of a moment in time!!!!! Not whether it has 2 tidily-wink measurements of resolution! Wake up some of you folks! What do you want to be "........... technicians or photographers?????????" God Save me, at least I'm still of the old school that the content of the image is far more important than all this "modern techie crap" everyone seems far more interested in, than capturing an earth shaking beautiful content image in time!" Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Dr. ted :-) Have a nice resolution! _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
