The web page is interesting but it just goes to show that to recreate a 6x6 tranny you get a 192MB file. So a 15.5MB file from a DSLR is paltry by comparison. I know that the sizes are not totally comparable because it depends on the file format and bit depth but the 8,192 lines per inch must be comparable to the pixels on a 15.5Mb camera ie 4752 pixels (long side) John On 12/10/2009 23:15, "Eric Goldstein" <egoldste@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > The film recorder is the hardware which "projects" the image for > shooting... it is a very high grade proprietary CRT mated to a film > camera.
