[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 331637, member: 3903"] The X10 should be back this week I hope. It will cost around 250... :( The thing is with the DSLR you don't see the negative. With the help of the negative, it's easy to show the lack of details in the shadows and highlights and people can learn the basics of B&W enlarging, dodging, burning in etc. Historically speaking, I think it's an important part of photography. Plus, artists should not be in a hurry, it does take time to learn and master a craft. With the DSLR, it's just too tempting to just shoot away and then try to correct with Photoshop. There is another thread about someone who wants to have settings to do outdoor portraits at night... Since he doesn't know anything about exposure and expect the camera to make most of the decisions for him, how long do you think he can last in business... [/QUOTE]
