We know some people are rather vocal in "digital being vastly superior and film users are so quaint," but in this case, I do believe that the IQ80 digital back and the like is equal to, if not better, than Astia... I'm not even sure why people have to slight one medium over the others. Let people shoot what they want. If someone wants to pour Collodian or do tintypes, then more power to them. It's not like film users are beating up kids or kicking dogs....
