Yes, I do think the previous thread was much more civil and I should not have reacted to Butzi's name calling, Jorge's belittling, etc. etc. I came down to their level of discourse and I now regret doing so. Both Butzi and Jorge have personal issues with me, right or wrong, and get too emotional when they should remain cooler and calmer. Neither seem to read the previous posts but come out shooting.
It is a challenge to have them continually attack View Camera for spurious reasons. Believe me I have held my tongue more than once with Butzi. The game he played a few years ago with View Camera was about as ugly and hypocritical as possible.
My first post in the previous thread was perhaps my best one on this topic. I never said that anyone in either of these threads said densitometry was necessary. This is a baiting question with no purpose but to narrow the argument so the poster can win. I was reacting to what I felt was an overall tendency by some to use the perceived need for hard science as a gate keeping procedure that might intimidate some and keep them from picking up a large format camera. I never accused anyone in either of these threads of making any such statement in either of these threads.
With regards to posting a photo how do I do this and I will be happy to.
