Excellent points and examples Alan. Though I mostly use digital cameras
these days (Nikon D1X, Canon EOS 1Ds, and Kodak Pro Back) , I still
shoot film. And it makes a huge perceptual difference with different
films. Film choisce is like a painter choosing a palette. That palette
will react differently in different light. You can tweak that palette
in Photoshop but you will turn yourself into a mental pretzel and waste
a lot of time trying to force one palette into another digitally.
