Thanks guys. Really did feel good to shoot film again. Missed it. Doug - It's a small scan (200dpi) from film. Good medium format scanners are so expensive right now, I'm not even considering getting my own ... so, for that format I either have my lab scan them or I'll rent a MF scanner. Brian - Where did I get what? I was probably 5-7 feet away from them. Opened up to f/3.5 to get the nice, shallow DOF. 'chelle - Nope, Ilford Delta 3200 B&W film shot at 3200. As your format size increases, the perceived grain size in scans and prints decreases. For instance, same shot, same film and same web image size but in 35mm format would have a more pronounced grain. Add to that the fact that ID 3200 has a fine grain for such a high speed film. -=>Donald
