Simply becuase you are too dense to understand the process involved to achive a usable image means the tool is at fualt?
1. When they cam out they were well under 1MP
2. Salespeople arnt what you goto for unbias advice
3. Youre a fool that buaght a point anfd shoot to replace a film slr.
4. 8MP DSLR with good glass outpreform most every film SLR when the final image is on paper in terms of resolution.
5. Realize that one step in the process of getting getting your film to paper involves a DIGITAL CHIP SCANNING YOUR FILM.
6. 2 MP can be blown up to an 8x10. Its called interpolation. Look into it. Also realize your digital image will not degrade like even the best stored film.
7. People like darkrooms, I am one of them. Film is BEING surrpassed by digital chips. It will be another 5 - 8 years. It will surpass it in dynamic range (negs) and resolutuion per unit.
You seem to know less than that salesman did. You sit there being ooed and awed with shiny things. Get real.
He was obviously reffering to 35mm format.
"If you REALLY do need resolution though, film will always be better than digital."
Hardly. Film is at best going to be a 4th generation representation of the original scene. Digital cuts out an entire generation. scene > film > scanner > paper as opposed to scene > digital > paper.
Also if you want to compair per mm unit then you also need to compair price per year. It is hardly pratical.
Yes, please do buy an Fx61. Buy 100 of them. tell your friends and their friends so you can, all 100 of you, half our national dept and allow me to by an AMD lesser proc at %25 the cost at 90% of the preformance.
Becuase its relavent per CPU type. One can compair a type of Athlon to a type of Pentium when many tests are done where Ghz is the common speed factor. Its just a number to look at AFTER you understand what multiplier to place under it when compairing it to whatever else.
"6. Don't get locked into one online store. Have you ever been on the hunt for a particular song? Some obscure indie rock tune or rare jazz performance you heard on the radio? You might have to shop at more than one store before you find the song you're looking for."
What an outrage. MS must think we are all morons. When was an online store (Apples they are obviously reffering to) a bad thing? $1 songs and free ones everyday. All sorted nice and neat and there for you to have without HAVEING to goto the store. In the case you do hear an obscure song you like, you have options. 1. Record song and convert it to MP3. 2. Rip song off CD bought at local music store and put on music device.
I hope they see me giveing them the finger, becuase im doing it as hard as I can!
