Kodak Ektar 100 to Be Launched in Large Format

[JRFrench]

Modern DSLRS are around 10 stops, but you usually have to pull the shadows a bit to get them there. The fuji sensors are around 13 stops I think, pretty amazing.

So your priority is fuzzy pictures versus using methods to control contrast. An interesting and quite novel view point.

Maybe the DSLR's, but MF digital backs and scanning backs have better than 10 stops. I consider that a better reason for using one over resolution.

[Ivan J. Eberle]

If DXOMark results mean anything, the Nikon D3s is reported to have 12 stops DR at ISO 200 and holds 10 stops at ISO 1600, the Canon Mk IV about 11 stops at the base ISO and also 10 stops at ISO 1600.

Jim: Your shot of the tree looks very nice. I never seem to have much luck on cloudy days. So I guess I'll have to keep trying.

This one in my town square on Ektar 100 last November with my Widelux 1500. Bob G.
