Otherwise, you use a dinky little Leica laser rangerfinder and a High Precision Mount which is nowhere near as fun, I meant, precise. So now you're staring at a $20,000 40 megapixel back. Well, $9500 if one have a P45 back to trade in. But really, you may as well get the 60 meg back. That has to be the sweet spot for optimal quality images. *** Or a cheap 8x10 and scan film :-) -- // richard <http://www.imagecraft.com/> // icc blog: <http://imagecraft.com/blog/> // photo blog: <http://www.5pmlight.com> [ For technical support on ImageCraft products, please include all previous replies in your msgs. ]
