I can see where this approach could be problematic, though.  Six or eight
different shots (Polaroids, maybe?) taken under six or eight different
lighting conditions would be easy to compare side-by-side.  Six or eight
different monitors side-by-side doesn't sound practical at all.  Even if so
many monitors could be properly calibrated, wouldn't the typical 72-dpi
resolution of a typical monitor be a serious limiting factor?  Seems like
comparing higher-resolution prints, rather than screen images, would be
better.  No?  If that's indeed the case, then maybe this fellow's decision
not to go digital at this time has to do with the time it takes to make
"instant" prints from digital images.
