I am a pretty dedicated film shooter. Some 4×5, mostly medium format. I typically drum scan my film and have it printed on a Lightjet at sizes ranging from 16×20 to 30×40 with excellent and sharp results – run it through photoshop and typical files sizes are in the hundreds of megabytes. You get within an inch or two of the print and it’s as sharp as a tack. Very satisfying.
I am taking a trip to Europe with my wife and am really not looking forward to dragging the Hasselblad Arcbody, tripod, film backs etc. etc. with me – besides, my wife’s going to kill me if I spend too much time setting up the camera stuff (that’s the real problem if you want to get down to it).
So I was thinking….maybe one of the new Canon 5D 12 megapixel cameras with one of their "L" lenses? I am guessing this will yield a raw 39mb file in photoshop which doesn’t seem big enough to make good prints at even 24×30. But others tell me I am all wet.
Help! This isn’t a light investment and I don’t want to spend a bunch of money and be dissapointed when expectations aren’t met.
Does anyone have any advice and perhaps a nice, tack sharp image you could either email me or I could download that’s full size and I can see for myself in Photoshop? This would be a God send.
Anyway, I’d appreciate some dialog. I am hoping to get some real answers.
