Message-Id: <199906011741.KAB13564@dns.ccit.arizona.edu> Date: Tue, 1 Jun 1999 13:39:13 -0400 From: Jill Ann Hurst <mailto:jhurst@MCLS.ROCHESTER.LIB.NY.US> Subject: Large format transparencies To: mailto:IMAGELIB@LISTSERV.ARIZONA.EDU
I am under the impress -- which I hope is true -- that digitizing from a large format transparency is preferred, rather than digitizing from a 35 mm transparency. Given that assumption:1. Are large format cameras common? What type of photograph studio would own such a camera?
2. Are large format cameras movable? Could one be taken on location to photograph items?
3. What is the down-side of working with large format cameras?
I look forward to your replies.
Jill
