    Agreed! The tone is so right and smooth. Was it on 8x10?
  23. Re: exposure issues using a DSLR as a lightmeter

    True. Just for clarity my comment about you being probably correct was only because I didn't have my camera to hand to verify myself, not because I doubted your information!

  24. Re: exposure issues using a DSLR as a lightmeter

    You are probably correct. I think the slight alteration of the colour might lead me to perceive a darkening. The contrast is certainly altered.

    Yeah I'm just doing this now! (D700 - owned for 3 years, don't know why I haven't done it yet!)

    If you were using your 5D in raw format, and your cheap P&S only shoots jpeg then that would almost certainly explain the discrepancy. Opening raw files in Lightroom 5 illustrates this perfectly -...
  31. Re: exposure issues using a DSLR as a lightmeter

    Agreed! The histogram is the only way to go if you're going to use a digital camera as a device to measure your exposure.

    Re: Scanners

    Food for thought... I didn't realise drum scanners could be picked up for that sort of price. I assume they aren't in circulation now, so what are your thoughts about tech support, spare parts etc?

    You have to draw one important distinction here, and I think the line is where you say 'for sale'. Is art made for consumption, or is it made 'for art's sake'?
