Re: 70 YEAR OLD KODACHROME TRANSPARENCIES from 1940-1943

[Klaus Knuth <klausknuth@xxxxxxx>]

Thanks!  Let me be a little more precise:

1) What can a tilt-shift do that can’t be done or simulated in software these days?

2) As an example: Sony, which also seems to produce the sensor for the Nikon D800, is one of the contenders for mirrorless: Same or similar results with a lot less stuff to carry around.

BTW:

I am a former fan of Kodachrome, too!

1) sure why wouldn't you use a tilt shift for exactly what its designed to do.   Change the plan of focus for a plethora of reasons. 

2) mmm Mirror-less cameras are doing ok but digital view finders aren't quit there yet.  They aren't bad but a nice optical viewfinder is much easier on the eyes.   In the future they might replace but who cares its not something that actually has much effect on the image taking process  any more then using a range finder vs an SLR (sort of)

Amazing images - especially considering the age!

On this occasion - I am an old/new member of this list.  Got sidetracked - mostly by my job - in the early 21st, but trying to get back into shape now.

Two questions if I may:

1.  Does anyone use Tilt-Shift Lenses on a regular basis these days and for what reason?

2.  Are mirror less cameras in the process of taking a big chunk out of the DSLR world and maybe even replace them in the future?

Thanks and hi!

Speaking of Kodachrome, I just got his from a friend.
