[LargeFormat] Kodak to Stop Making Film-Based Cameras!

[Michael Sullivan]

Well, here we will have to agree to disagree: I prefer shooting analog and 
then scanning. Once in my digital darkroom, a slightly flatter, less 
contrasty original is preferable as I have complete control over saturation 
and contrast anyway. Thus for me, NC is an optimal film for any kind of 
subject matter (it even behaves fairly well in terms of reciprocity). I 
don't want Kodak or Fuji over saturating anything in my images -- that is 
my job. However, if I were still an analog/analog guy I'd likely agree with 
you...
