Hi Alec,
As I write this, I am looking at my 8 MP Canon Digital Rebel sitting next to my film Canon 1N RS and wonder how would you apply your "spray & pray" theory to them? The first gets mere 2-3 fps and the latter is faster than any DSLR ever made (or at least equal to one I know of) at 10 fps.
Which one is your Joe Schmoe going to use for his fantastic blowouts?
As for the dumb schmuck, it takes only a little-heavier-than usual finger, a digit if you will
, to burn $4.50 worth of film on that RS too. The upside is that it takes only 2.5 to 3.5 sec to do it, depending on what you loaded.
So, in the end, I can't but wonder what makes a bigger schmuck - blowing $4.50 of film in 15 minutes or in 3.5 sec? And how high is either of those two schmucks going to blow those negatives up?
P.S.
Back to my two Canons, since they use the exact same lenses and are operated by the same schmuck, which one, IYHO is going to yield more fantastic 16x20 blowouts?
Normally, I would tend to think they would both be the same, but since you guys seem to be insisting that it is indeed the camera that makes good or bad pictures, no matter how good or bad the photographer, I thought I should ask the expert...
