Hi all.
I have temporarily removed Joel's thread on film holders from view, until I decide what to do with it. That'll give people time to cool off a little. It's an excellent thread in several respects and evolved into a discussion about the differences between depth of field and depth of focus. But personal attacks (e.g. name calling) began, and things got out of hand.
In having discussions of differences of opinions, there's a playing field that enables us to keep the discussion at a professional and informed level. I think Tuan has done a good job in defining the boundaries of that playing field in the guidelines. Probably the most important aspect of staying on that field is avoiding personal attacks. It doesn't matter how right or wrong we are, we step over a line when we call someone else a name or assassinate their character. The best time to consider this line and it's existance is when we begin getting hot under the collar.
Joel's thread will be returned to view at some time in the near future.
