Jim,
I always enjoy your posts! Digital or filter or anything else. (As a matter of
fact, I saved your message on the 'pixel counting'). Your arguments are easy
to follow, because you always give the basis of your words not just the
opinion. You refer to Leica documents including their reference number. You do
your pixel calculation so that I think everyone can follow.
And you have more knowledge about taking photos than many of us.
