Is there a quantitative difference between LF and stitched MF?
I have a Mamiya 7, and a Crown Graphic.
Theoretically, if I take two pictures with the Mamiya and stitch them together, it's roughly the same as taking a picture with the 4x5 (slightly cropped).
As a scientist, talking about resolution and grain and color, I don't think there is.
But looking at pictures taken with both, it seems there is a difference. This is not about movements, which are of course important, but I don't use them in most portraits or landscapes (I only have a Crown).
Opinions?
