I can't share it, I don't have experience with digital, and maybe the worst is that I'm neither attracted by the digital. Thanks for your comment, maybe I'll have the same idea as you on the future... Saludos desde Barcelona Luis -----Mensaje original----- De: lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org]En nombre de Adam Bridge Enviado el: jueves, 13 de octubre de 2005 2:48 Para: Leica Users Group Asunto: Re: [Leica] Black and White If you had written this five years ago, Luis, I'd have agreed with you. But now I find that, using digital cameras, I'm shooting in color but knowing I'll be printing the image as black and white and so that's what I'm looking for when I'm shooting. Now I know I'll be taking the image and running it through a B&W conversion process. I've learned to see differently - perhaps more completely.
