Maybe I've been unlucky, but the 3.3 million pixel Kodak 4800 digital camera I have has a tendency to blow the highlights in a contrasty situation, _much_ more so than black and white film.

I have the following question: Does a CCD have less or more capability in recording different light levels then black and white film. To refrase,was wondering I know that in resolving power film is still more then an order of magnitude ahead of digital but wondered if the same was true regarding the number of stops it can span in a single frame. Thanks for the help simon jessurun p.s. only use the Leica and the Sinar,have no use anymore for the Nikon,s so traded them Honest!. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
