    While I really don't know about this process it became quite apparent that every claim in the article is highly subjective. I will wait until the process is adopted by industry...till then I will continue to use my 1DS III

    I went and asked my D80 how it felt about being doubly obsolescent. It shrugged and took another picture

    Its just another type of digital sensor. Has nothing to do with what we know as "film."

    It could have the ability to make very large sensors cheaper/high yeild. That would be interesting.

    Then we could all make razor sharp prints hundreds of square meters in size. Perhaps by then someone will have a device that will allow us to project the images on the clouds, or perhaps the moon?

    Sigh... some digital upstart's marketing department has decided to steal the word "film"?
    Figures...
    I see imbeciles calling digital prints turned blue "cyanotypes".
    I see an ebayer upselling an epson print as a "contact print".
    Now some creative jerks are going to market a new digital sensor as "film"
    Just great. Moan.
