I do find the prints from the 10D, printed formerly on an Epson, now a Canon, printer comparable to prints from scanned negatives from my R8, maybe a touch worst than scanned slides and a touch better than scanned print film. I don't like the ergonomics of the Canon nearly as much as the R8 and the R8 viewfinder is in another class. OTOH not having to wait for the end of the film is a great benefit for amateurs such as myself so I only use film for MF, here the prints from scanned negatives are much better than the EOS 10D or 35mm Leica scans. cheers Frank On 25 Aug, 2004, at 18:29, Douglas Herr wrote: > FRANK DERNIE <frank.dernie@btinternet.com> wrote: > >> I wonder whether 120 or 35mm film will be the more >> popular in the future.
