large format article discussion

[QT Luong]

I am not sure "versatility" is the best way to characterize LF. There is no image which can be made with a LF camera, which cannot be made at least as easily with another format. All LF gives you in better image quality and a different working style. Depending on one's dispositions, this might or might not be relevant.

"Better image quality" is one of those value judgements that is fairly difficult to define. Sometimes "better" is a 35mm with a tack sharp lens, and sometimes it`s the 5x7 with a pinhole or a paper neg. Steve Clark
