I don't share the obsession with resolution in fine (no pun intended) art photography. Have you ever tried to look at an impressionistic painting from a 1 ft distance? How does it look? I think composition, lighting, mood are much more important than pixel count.

Thats the reason Ansel used a 35mm. Who needs all that resolution...

I don't know what you guys are talking about, my (now)crappy dig. rebel is good enough to print 20x30. I recently printed about seven 20x30 of SF and they look awesome. I can't even see the pixels yet. I am getting a 30D in tomorrow, can't wait to see what I can print with that, I am sure I can do 30x40. I guess only time will tell. I am sure I will be happy either way.


Everybody has there own opinions of quality. I prefer very large prints from scanned (200mb+) film files.
