Digital ?effects? trying to mimic Optical ?effects? generally fail in the same way that digital ?effects trying to mimic Drawing and/or Painting ?effects? generally fail. The Rodenstock Imagon lenses and Thambar and the like achieve their effects in unique ways. You may not like them or their effects; yet they do draw unique images. And the Imagons can deliver tack sharp to numerous different types of softness along with glowing highlights. I have a couple Imagons if anyone shooting large format film has an interest. <http://www.larry-bolch.com/ephemeral/pictorial/> fond regards, George http://www.imagist.com/blog http://www.imagist.com http://www.linkedin.com/imagist
