Ah. I took the ³in this fashion;² to mean the photo as apposed to shooting technique.
I too find the joy of grabbing shots on the run (kind of a why not, itıs free feeling), which I wouldnıt normally take the time to play with using other film equipment, to be one of the pluses for the little Digilux1. And in fact this playing aspect is having a positive affect on my film work. The ³polaroid² nature of the digi allows for all kinds of testing. Testing lighting setups, shutter speeds, compositions, crazy ideas it seems to push my boundaries faster than film experimentation would and once youıve got the box, at no cost.
And I suspect that if I had a D1s, Iıd still want the little Digilux, or something like it, for these playing purposes. The Digilux seems quite perfect in this regard. I imagine the size, weight and file size of the D1s would throw me back into pro-mode rather than what-the-hell-play-mode.
Fond regards,
