Rork- I used good old tri-x 400. I am a diehard fan of it. Finder- Let me clear something up here...When I say I don't believe in post work, I mean anything beyond restoring a photo back to it's original print quality. I sometimes adjust my contrast and remove dust spots, etc. By "post work" I mean things such as cropping or adding tones or filters. Things like that. When I scan, I scan about 5 or 6 times the size of my final jpg file. I know a thing or two about what I'm doing. I'm not completely ignorant. You mentioned restoring a scan to it's original quality. I'm all for that, but as far as MY work is concerned, that's where it ends. If I didn't crop a photo correctly on the film itself or if I used poor judgment of depth of field making my picture out of focus, than I failed. I won't shoot sloppy photos knowing that I can crop and mask the hell out of them when I scan. The ultimate goal for one of my photos is to hang on my wall. The best of my work gets displayed in my home. I'm not going to put a scan on my wall. I'm going to put a print on my wall. I only scan to share my work. What you see on Render is an exact copy of what may someday make it to my wall. Scanning is only for exposure for me. For others, I think post work is fine. As I said before, I love paintings but I'm not a painter. Finder, while it may seem that I'm lashing back, I do appreciate the criticism. I totally agree with what you said, however I wanted to communicate how I feel about my own work. My beliefs aren't for everyone. By the way, I use the world's cheapest scanner anyway. I'm not trying to impress the digital market! Punkclown- I'm glad I could inspire you! Thanks for the compliments... Everyone- I love the criticism everyone. Please keep it coming! Andrew
