I have a feeling that this group of people on the list seemed intent to discuss the technical aspect of photography, when photography itself is not a science. It never was.. Photography has also been an art. Whenever I meet people out there with an APS camera, they seemed to have the technical expertise that I don't have. They knew how to justify how good the APS SLR cameras are compared to a 35mm with scientific facts that I had no clue about. Okay.. I may not be a techie kind of guy, but when I asked them to show me some of their pictures taken with the APS. There's no content.. It's pure garbage..
I am afraid that we always like to discuss the technical aspect of digital and what it can do to surpass today's film format. I have no doubt that it will. It's a given. As to when it will be -- your guess is as good as mine.. However, good resolution, color, contrast on digital photos can not make up for good content!! A lot of professional 6x7 photographers use the medium to capture content so that they can be reproduced in a media of choice. At least 2 digital SLR pros that I know personally use their DSLRs in conjunction with their film cameras for specific work project. It is just another money making tool, just like a 6x7 is another money making tool. The ultimate judge to final quality will always be not YOU, but your clients! You can always pat yourself in the back congratulating your good work, but if everyone else thinks your work is crap, no amount of super technology that you have in your possession will change the fact.
