Why do old photographs looks so crystal sharp? Is it because of the giant glass negatives?

how did you find this? its not anywhere on his site

What made him think this awkward side eye photo was worth keeping and what stops him from taking some of that cannot POS R money and sending his kids to phys ed (aka the gym)
>>
>>4297401
>>4297386
well, resolution =/= pixel dimensions
a 1mp photo can have a higher optical resolution than a 2mp photo if more details are resolved

They aren't apprecially sharper than a medium format camera or even a 35 taking on high quality film stock using a tripod and taking care of a good exposure with correct aperture.

In terms of resolution, the lens is available back then we're deporably bad. Modern ones are so much better. Modern computer design better glasses and Coatings make a lot of difference. And also the newer film stocks are so much better than the old glass plate stuff.

I thought Ken Rockwell had closed up his photography site. It's got like finding one of those really old websites and realizing it's still around. Even though it hasn't had really good content or an update nor decade.
>>
>>4302139
And yet the sharpness in OP BTFO of whatever snapshit digital shit you have.

An a7s with a potato lens could do that

I'm a hassleblad owner and I own and 8x10 gandalfi View Camera along with a bunch of digital including a 6D Mark 2

Where do you think you are nigger?

>>4297371
wide equivalent FOV compared to FF. Combined with tiny apertures (everything in focus) and long exposure. Voila. Very sharp.
>>
>>4297371
>Is it because of the giant glass negatives?

probably. Those large formats had to have a megapixel equivalent of like over 100. it's amazing they were able to make sharp lenses.

>calling someone else a turbo sperg when you're the one unable to read contextual cues like the date something is published, or the shift in tone between a recommendation to a mug punter and an actual technical analysis, which he frequently gives both of, or between a statement of opinion vs fact, comparison vs absolutism, etc.
