Dear bros, I have given up on film mostly. The GFX 50R produces great images in a package that I can travel with and make great prints. My sweet sweet Mamiya RZ67 just can't compete. The thought of having to dev and scan makes me want to die. I still have rolls of film that are 2 years old that I have yet to process.

I actually ended up printing a 12x12 inch photo book from my recent travels and it's turned out beautifully. I will post some pics of it. Bros, I am sorry but film is dead, gay, and retarded.

Stop being cheap and just pay somebody $10 to develop your film.

Did you try putting the camera right down at the yellow flowers in the foreground, I feel you could have made them more prominent for a stronger foreground.

just wait a few years and used digital MF backs become truly affordable. today you can get the first gen backs for a few hundred dollars. but those are shitty CCD sensors with like 0.5MP resolution

I have the cheap zoom which is really fucking nice. I bought a few mamiya 645 lenses to adapt, but in reality the GF glass is really good. The zoom is such a great travel lens.

>>4362147
I'll keep my RZ67 for this reason, but the portability of the GFX is good. I even have one of those fanny packs that fits it.

do whatever you want. as someone who's loved the idea of film, started out doing darkroom in highshool, owned hasselblads, mamiya 6, rz67, various 35mm, the GFX is finally a digital I can be happy with. I am trading those rare perfect film shots for massive increases in ease, speed, reduction in costs, retarded amounts of time and boredom cleaning dust, dealing with fucking chems, scanners, etc etc etc.

I would have never been able to capture my recent travels well enough to make an 80 page book with film without it taking over the moment. l can be more creative since I don't have to worry about burning through film. I will say I ended up building a 12TB NAS because the amount of shots I've taken just on my 3 week trip was a couple hundred gigs.

Film is great when everything aligns but the reality is that it doesn't align alot of the time. Something goes wrong and I think it slows growth when you don't give yourself the opportunity to snap away and play.

>>4362213
You’re a moneyfag, why not aim for a real DMF like a hassy or PhaseOne? Obese FF won’t be much better than the full frame stuff you have already.

I don't see anything that could've not been done with a FF nor do i like the compositions particularly but i respect someone who i think knows what he wants and will go all-in to try and get good at it.
I am on the same path except i wasn't rich/retarded enough to buy into the film world, but i am dumb enough to get into the mirrorless world. I don't think Nikon and Canon can't make a DSLR with most of the shit a top-tier ML has but i guess i will settle for them, i love OVFs but i am getting blind and the EVFs are way too much convenience in checking focus, video levels and WYSIWYG shots.

6x7 film requires complete and absolute autism (a7riv/gfx100, anti-vibration table, autistic alignment, homemade carrier, ultrabright high-cri light source, filter set for better correcting out the masks, etc) to scan for all of the resolution it can offer, and you will be wasting it at any output size under 16x20.

unfortunately gear fagging seems to be the priority for most "photographers". I used to work in NYC on sets for fashion magazines and you use the tools that get you the results you need while regarding the realities. Alot of things are nice in theory or on youtube but are not practical. DSLR's are old, clunky tech.

Jim Kasson did an extensive z7 vs gfx50 comparison. If you zoom in to the max on leave, the gfx50 is marginally sharper but strangely has more aliasing.

Only the gfx100 series really have an advantage over a dinosaur d850.

50mp is a turning point. I still get nostalgic for film sometimes and enjoy occasionally shooting it, but my 5Ds effectively retired MF for all serious/professional use. I might like the rendering of a particular film or spending time in a lab printing B&W. But if I want peak image quality from my kit, it's the 5Ds. Peak low light performance, R6.

Low iso mf film can easily stomp all over a 5ds, especially a 5ds, that sensor is ass. You just have to forego mirror slapping and spend about $9k on a scanning rig. Maybe not an a7riv, way better sensor on that one. And better glass.

Whats wrong, can't afford a ten grand digital camera to take photos of your photos? Don't want to buy and repair a heidelberg tango and spend 10 hours scanning a roll of 120, which you will inevitably fuck up a bit and end up with some frames that are no better than the ones you'd get from a flatbed? Don't want to spend $50 per shot contact printing 8x10 and displaying LF slides with electronic backlights? Film just isn't for you.

All true

Film is so amazing in theory. If you do everything right, and its the end of the world as we know it prior to an AI overmind enslaving humanity for what the AI "thinks" is our own good. It's real photos, 100mp if you expose it perfectly, with all the GNDs you can stack, develop each individual frame accordingly, and scan with the most sophisticated and expensive gear without any procedural errors whatsoever. C2PA? These negs are unfakeable, bro!

But that's just a theory and film was used to fake shit anyways by "accidentally losing" the original negative and calling everyone who asked questions crazy
>>
>>4366956
There is nothing else

If a digital camera like a gfx, a7rii, or ls-2000 can scan a frame it can also take the same photo all on its own. It's people trying to justify film, when it's wholly dated. "Well, I can't do pixel shift in one shot", thinks the film scanner as he tries not to breathe while his a7riv is humming away, otherwise what fucking point is there

There is no real difference between scanned film and slapping a preset on an .arw file.

Bro Ive seen your comparisons gutted so many times it's stupid, most of them are wholly invalid.

I don't even waste time scanning film to its peak and am the one saying that resolution be damned, film is borderline pointless, but I've seen it done much better than your comparisons, many times, by different people, and had a few peeks at a negative through a loupe. They are not all conspiring together to fuck up the digital halves of their comparisons in the same way. You, just one guy grabbing random, sourceless, crap with no published, reproducible methodology on the other hand? Hard to trust. The map is the only one that comes close to reality and it's really just film not being smoothed and sharpened to death. Color separation is still a lot better and it's visibly slightly higher resolution - within the realm of an ideal 30mp difference, hurt by glass quality and operator error. If you think a drum scan is always going to be ideal, bad news, that's not real life. A car driving past can really wreck a drum scan and people sperg out over this drum operator vs that all the time.

Give it up. A shitty 5ds available is not going to outdo 6x7 any day unless the guy shooting and scanning the film is incompetent and using shittier optics, it'll only come close enough and be better for people who prefer nr/sharpening to grain. Good, very low ISO film shot, developed, and scanned as competently as possible with the best optics available will always resolve midtone and highlight detail better than a 50mp bayer shitter.
Now, an a7riv with GM glass WILL be so close to 6x9 that no one cares.

Film died outside of the motion picture industry because only the motion picture industry has time and money for the
>shot, developed, and scanned as competently as possible with the best optics available
part. I guess it's worth no aliasing in their footage, since they always use 250d and artificial lights.

Also lol shadow DR, film has NONE.

>f/16 causes diffraction on 6x9
Thank you for confirming that you know jack shit.
>>
>>4366981
You're enlarging a closer tire in good light, and comparing to to a more distant tire in dark light, knowing full well that tires have next to no texture to appreciate and film has ass shadow DR. It's a very crooked comparison to present as a resolution test, rather than an example of how film's tonality and resolution tank below zone IV.
>>
>>4366980
Note: all of this assumes you stick to a certain sensitivity range.

By the time you reach 400, there's no contest, film is inferior pixel peeping feed to digital, it loses exponentially.

So, film, technically
-Has slightly higher resolution than some $800 DSLRs at the cost of visible grain, and struggles to compete with modern mirrorless, if you are paying $20 for 12 shots or less
-Handles fine colored details just a little bit better if you're looking close enough to see grain
-Spills its spaghetti if it's just a little too dim in part of the image
-Satisfies your pixel peeping at low ISOs only
-Is a massive pain in the ass to make the most out of
Film, technically, is worse overall.

But if you really want to see individual pine needles with 0 false color or weird wobbly stuff, granted they are well lit pine needles, putting as much effort into scanning a single frame as possible is definitely the way to go.

But if you're not pine needle peeping film is just a faster route to a certain color palette. You're kind of paying someone to edit your photos, instead of bringing the scene into that palette yourself.

Love the grain and fuzzy trunks in your scan btw. Was that supposed to be an example of a "better scan"?

Post them. The one you posted is not.
>crickets

>You, just one guy grabbing random, sourceless, crap
I included the source for the highest IQ film scan. They make good money providing 10,000 ppi scans to people who want the best. Go right ahead and best them. Show us all how it's done.
>crickets.

>muh methodology!!!
All settings fully listed in the 10,000 ppi comparison scan. They have more sample files on their web site, feel free to find one better. Speaking of methodology: literally zero details for your scan.

>muh map sharpening!!!
The maps weren't sharpened. The 5Ds is that sharp ooc with the right lenses.
>muh smoothing!!!
Funny way to say that 6x9 loses on noise/grain.

>Color separation is still a lot better
LMFAO the 5Ds resolved subtle color detail much better in each comparison.

>and it's visibly slightly higher resolution
Are you referring to the 5Ds? Yes, the 5Ds is visibly higher resolution.

>it was the glass!
>it was operator error!!!
They were all properly exposed tripod shots with sharp primes. There was no error. And I LOVE how you simultaneously claim the 6x9 map is better while making up excuses for why it's not better. You don't even believe your own bullshit.

>a car drove by during the drum scan!!!
ROTFLMAO. Again, you don't believe your own shit. That's why you claim MF is better and in the next breath claim there was operator error.

I don't know if you're trolling or actually butt hurt that high res FF beats 6x9 film. But give it up.

>Good, very low ISO film shot...will always resolve midtone and highlight detail better than a 50mp bayer shitter.
Except that it didn't in three comparisons. Let me guess: a car drove by during the scan, right? All of them, right???
>>
>>4366992
>Was that supposed to be an example of a "better scan"?
It's a lab scan because I see film like this
>But if you're not pine needle peeping film is just a faster route to a certain color palette. You're kind of paying someone to edit your photos, instead of bringing the scene into that palette yourself.

The rest is mostly about you being a spastic and perpetually wrong gear queer. Not wasting any more time responding to your reddit spaced hysterical meltdown except for this part because to me it best demonstrates your inability to think rationally.
>They were all properly exposed tripod shots with sharp primes. There was no error. And I LOVE how you simultaneously claim the 6x9 map is better while making up excuses for why it's not better. You don't even believe your own bullshit.
It is better, but not as better as it could be. Operator error is common in scanning no matter how high you drag the PPI slider, sorry.

And, anyways, an A7RIV+GM prime will get you that last little bit needed to outdo the majority of film. Have fun.

>>4366981

>>
>>4366982
>muh excuses!!!
At least you didn't claim a car drove by during scanning in all three scans LOL.
- Tires are comparable size and all tire detail should be resolved well at both sizes.
- The VW bug was in good light, a strobe setup. Just because it was done at night for a moody background doesn't mean the subject was underexposed.
- Tires do have texture. In the 5Ds shot you can see the tire wear and it looks just like reality. You can see the text on the tire wall and it looks just like it would if you were sitting next to the tire. 6x9 simply struggled to sharply resolve those details and presented them with grain (at this mag).
- While bitching about shadow latitude you ignore that the rims are bright, and yet we still see grain and soft edges.
- If it's a crooked comparison test then why does the map test (equal size/exposure in a mid tone scene, same target except for a few printing differences) and the portrait test (high key scenes) both show the same exact thing?

When I saw the portrait shot on Canon's website in 2015 I knew 6x9 had been beaten by FF. I've never seen a 6x9 portrait with that level of sharpness and clean detail. I didn't make excuses and cling to film like a child.

With every excuse you confirm the truth. Likewise with every nophoto post. "6x9 is so much better!!!" yet you do not have, and cannot find, even one example of this. You have to jump to 4x5 to edge out 45-61mp FF/MF.
>inb4 but a plane flew overhead during scanning in all three cases and that's TOTALLY the reason for soft edges and grain

I engage in these debates because I find human psychology fascinating. Even in the face of hard evidence people will still cling to their beliefs. It's insane to watch in real time.

>-Has slightly higher resolution
You have to go to 4x5 to out resolve high res FF.

>-Handles fine colored details just a little bit better if you're looking close enough to see grain
It observably does not. This is one of the worst film myths. Film's resolution is highly correlated with target contrast and it does poorly resolving subtle detail whether it's B&W detail or color detail. And for the same reason that a 1.6:1 test yields half the resolution of a 1000:1 test on film. Your pine needles will resolve better on high res FF or digital MF. Look at the strands of hair in the portrait comparison or the map relief texture in the map comparison. Film can do better distant foliage than high res FF only IF you're shooting 4x5 or 8x10.

And the only detail you provided (film, lens, methodology) was the hint in the file name. Yet your criticize my methodology?

>The rest is mostly about you being a spastic and perpetually wrong gear queer.
Is that the reason you had to come up with copes like "a car drove by"?

>Not wasting any more time responding to your reddit spaced hysterical meltdown
Good. Keep your mouth shut unless you can post comparisons you have made which back up your claims. Was that a 6x6 scan you posted? Go back to that location with a rented high res FF and do the exact same shot at the same time, see what happens.

>It is better, but not as better as it could be.
It's not better at all and you can't point to a single thing that indicates any kind of operator error. Camera shake, misfocus, poor exposure, development errors, even a "car driving by and shaking the drum scanner" would all be obvious. It's just a COPE and a revealing one since it betrays your true thoughts about the comparisons.

Next time you're going to lie, think about how two lies might contradict each other and reveal your true thoughts.
>>
>>4367002
>Even in the face of hard evidence
I have seen your comparisons gutted and contradicted enough times. Only the map comes close to more competently done tests and real life.

I've also extensively used two high resolution FF cameras, both better bodies and better lenses than a 5ds, and found them to come very close to 6x7 but not exact.

If you really hate grain and want edge crisping in post digital is for you, god knows film has enough problems with the testy process, exponentially worse results for every stop over ISO 100, and total lack of shadow information, but please stop being so angry because film still does a few things better than digital (handling aliasing, a bit of resolution, and keeping people away from the sharpening slider).

This big hysterical pile of diarrhea is an excellent example of why you're intolerable.

You get this meltdown from "it's a bit better but not as good as it could have been". Yikes.

Remember, I mostly agreed that film isn't that great and you were responding to me saying that what little film has to offer is too hard to extract for most people. I just said digital can't handle the finest details, especially if they're colored details, as well as the more expensive and hard to use film formats, and only at low ISOs. Nice meltdown.

>I hope no one ever tells you that the human eye sees color the same way. Where do you think Bryce Bayer got the idea from?
There's a great chance I was the one who told you the human eye sees color a similar way, but it's a composited feed from two organic, curved sensor RGBW cameras reading out all of the "pixels" whenever they regenerate and editing out the blood vessels and floaters, not a single scan of a RGGB grid, so has no relation to cameras.

Remember what I originally said.

In the 42-50mp FF class, film still edges out digital for some very demanding subjects at low ISOs, at the cost of visible grain that's impossible to get rid of without wrecking the whole photo. It's also not very compatible with sharpening because of this. 42-50MP FF is still bad enough to lose occasional photos to maze patterns in hair, eyebrows, and fabric so I wear my shutters the fuck out by leaving every camera in CH just in case.
>>
>>4367009
>I have seen your comparisons gutted and contradicted enough times
Where? Link to it.
>crickets
Every time I post these I get nothing but excuses, copes, and unsubstantiated claims like "no a car drove by during scanning if you scanned in the middle of a forest away from a highway it would be better!" The only thing you've gutted is your own argument.

>Only the map comes close to more competently done tests and real life.
6x9 lost that test. And the map shows the same relative IQ difference as the other two, so how can it be the only valid one? Explain that please. 6x9's performance in the car comparison isn't dramatically worse, it's about the same IQ difference as the map. So why is one valid and one invalid? 645 is a little bit further behind but did admirably given the size difference, not a dramatically worse loss compared to the map test. So again, why is one valid and one is not? If we're seeing the same relative IQ across all three, doesn't that reinforce the results?

>I've also extensively used two high resolution FF cameras, both better bodies and better lenses than a 5ds, and found them to come very close to 6x7 but not exact.
Post the comparisons, with EXIF so we can see your "better bodies and lenses." And give all specs on the film side. Eager to see this.
>crickets

>because film still does a few things better than digital (handling aliasing
What aliasing? Where is there aliasing in any of the 5Ds crops? Circle it in red.

>a bit of resolution, and keeping people away from the sharpening slider
You have to use more sharpening with film scans to get a best possible print. And the only way you get more resolution is by shooting a B&W line chart under bright strobes. Never in the real world. Not unless you shoot Adox CMS 20, that's the ONE film that can actually stand toe-to-toe with digital in terms of sharpness/detail in the same format.

You've posted nothing but diarrhea. You've shot "better bodies and glass" side by side with 6x7 and digital lost? Show us. Don't write paragraphs about how a car drove by and ruined the film scans, three times with three separate scanners in three separate locations. Show us what you've got.
>crickets

>You get this meltdown from "it's a bit better but not as good as it could have been".
There's no meltdown. I'm just calling you out on your bullshit, obvious lying (it's very clearly not better), and obvious copes. And you don't like it. I posted three comparisons with no real text and got paragraphs of excuses and rhetoric in response, but nophotos. The irony is how completely you betrayed yourself. If you really thought the film side was better in any comparison, there would be no need to write paragraphs of excuses.

Every time it's the same with film fags.
>Noooo the film should be better!
Then show us better.

That should be "map and car." The car is snapshit but close enough in size to compare to a 10,000 ppi scan of a supposedly superior medium. Zoom lens and hand held and it still won.

I don't know where your photos are. You've shot 6x7 side by side with "better digital bodies and lenses" and "6x7 won" but I don't see any photos attached to your posts. Is there a problem with my browser? Are they not loading?

>There's a great chance I was the one who told you the human eye sees color a similar way,
There's a zero chance since I knew this decades ago.

>but it's a composited feed from two organic, curved sensor RGBW cameras reading out all of the "pixels" whenever they regenerate and editing out the blood vessels and floaters, not a single scan of a RGGB grid, so has no relation to cameras.
Nothing you said changes the fact that color is resolved by interpolating the output from three separate color sensitive cell types. It's fundamentally the same.

>In the 42-50mp FF class, film still edges out digital for some very demanding subjects at low ISOs
SHOW US. Tired of responding to words and excuses. Your words are meaningless without proof. Apart from Adox CMS 20 the only time I've seen MF film edge out high res FF is on contrast pumped line charts. And it often loses even then.

>42-50MP FF is still bad enough to lose occasional photos to maze patterns in hair, eyebrows, and fabric
That's an aliasing/moire problem, the reason why I got the 5Ds over the 5DsR and think Canon is right to have an AA filter on the R5/R5ii. Maybe once a year I see a little moire in a spot of fabric and clean it up.

All I did was post an opinion. YOU are the won that came back with insults and snark. So then I posted proof, and that's when YOU melted down.

Don't get butthurt when you get called out for being insulting and for having zero evidence. Ironic you called me a "gear queer" when you are the one being a queer and I'm pretty sure it's about gear you don't even own.

I swear to god man you've had this argument at least once a day with 5 different people, stop treating it like it's the first time. You can nail it shut real quick, with no room for debate, with proof anyone can check out at their leisure, forever.

You linked the scans already. Just upload the raw of the car. I will personally be comparing it to the next lower resolution scan because over-scanning (resolving grain) to that degree ironically looks worse, even if you can barely make out a few extra marks in the rubber, and I can't be assed to work with a 4.5GB tif. But I will be double checking some common claims, like size in frame (in case it would be like saying 20mp m43 is sharper than 20mp ff by using a 20mm lens on both) and real detail without optional computer hallucinations.

For the record I said film is a gay color preset because the amount of effort needed to wring that one, tiny, very conditional bit of "better than digital" out of it is isn't really worth it.

You first. It's that simple. You don't get to make any demands when you have posted NOTHING.

>I will personally be comparing it to the next lower resolution scan because over-scanning (resolving grain) to that degree ironically looks worse
I tend to agree. Here's the drum scan. Film looks a little better than in the 10,000 ppi scan, but the 5Ds still wins this with ease. Film is still softer and still shows some grain. Looking at surfaces you see the structure of film showing through. Looking at surfaces in the 5Ds shot, it just looks like reality. Same thing we see in the portraits. This directly contradicts filmfag claims regarding resolution AND color detail/separation. "Muh Bayer!!!" has no trouble with the most subtle color transitions and details, while film turns to grain.

So you own 6x7 and compared it to two high res FF bodies...but you don't own 6x7...but you do own 6x7 you just don't scan the frames...or you do scan them, but appeal to the eternal filmfag cope that "hurr a better scanner and it would win!"

Yes, someone elses photos are an excellent way to see it on a PC screen. And also, loupe on square, and compare it to a cropped 35mm. Film is grainy and fuzzy instead of noise reduced and sharpened but it shows things that do not exist in similar digital photos because they are below the limits of what the tech can do in a single shot.

Remember 6x7 is 4:3, 6x6 is 1:1, and 35mm digital is 3:2. Therefore 35mm (small format) should actually be directly compared to 6x9 (full frame), and cropped to compare to crops of 6x9.
>>
>>4367117
Here we see an example of how dishonest and spastic you are

Comparing ISO 400 on film, which I already agreed is one of the ways film loses hard - exponentially, and yet... the fine details are just a lot better and more distinct. But that's because it's 4x5, a low ISO film with that area is hundreds of "megapixels". Sheesh.

>Comparing ISO 400 on film, which I already agreed is one of the ways film loses hard - exponentially
Left is Portra 400's MTF curve, right is Velvia 50, both screenshots are from their respective tech sheets.
https://business.kodakmoments.com/sites/default/files/files/resources/e4050_portra_400.pdf
https://www.ishootfujifilm.com/uploads/VELVIA%2050%20Data%20Guide.pdf

Where is the "exponential" loss of resolution? Do you even know what "exponential" means? Because that's not an "exponential" difference. Portra 400 is a ~65 lp/mm film, Velvia 50 ~80 lp/mm. An "exponential" difference would make Portra 6.5 lp/mm. (Note that these numbers are still line chart tests even if they're at a contrast closer to real world fine detail, 1.6:1. If you take those numbers and try to compute film's resolution in MP you're going to be sorely disappointed in the real world, because in the real world you don't hit those numbers due to various losses across the board.)

If Velvia 50 is 400mp in 4x5, then Portra 400 should be 325mp. And yet an 80mp back is within striking distance of it on resolution.

Protip: 4x5 != 400mp. Unless you're shooting Adox CMS 20 II, THEN it might hit those numbers.

>the fine details are just a lot better and more distinct.
"A lot"? You couldn't tell them apart without pixel peeping. Yeah 4x5 won that one, but not by much.

Please show us these examples where you see more detail. I've asked how many fucking times now?

Two of the comparisons are to 6x9. And you can still compare to 6x7 as long as you match vertically and look at the center.

But, people much more competent and trustworthy than you have already completely contradicted your claims and left you coping, so, I encourage you, do post the raw for your supposed damning comparison (where you did whatever you could to make the digital file look better) so I can take an unbiased look at it, even though in both photos, half a headlight and half a tire are all that's in sharp focus (i don't know what else to expect).

Where? Who? I want to see their tests. Why can't we see them? What are you afraid of? Do they actually exist? I've been googling but all I can find are comparisons where you have to go to 4x5, or use a microfilm, to pull ahead. Where is this comparison where 6x7 is better?

>where you did whatever you could to make the digital file look better
How did I do that? No sharpening, no NR, no optical corrections. Let me guess: I didn't use a shit pixelating scaling algorithm, so in your view that was cheating, right?

Brilliant camera. It was kind of difficult staying with Canon while that was on the market, before the 5Ds/5DsR. I nearly bought a used Leaf Aptus-II 10 around that time period, wanting more resolution for large prints.
>>
>>4367234
Yeah same- back then I had a 5D2, a buddy had a D700, I’d had a 5D and he’d had a D300 before that, and a couple of earlier Canon and Nikon bodies and we used to not particularly seriously rib each other over whose system was better but the 800 series was the first time when I genuinely considered maybe I should move systems.
>>
>>4367233
The truth is that you know they don't support your claims. That's why you're afraid to link them again. (And you might as well stop pretending to be multiple people.) That's why I'm the one who posted the IQ180 vs. 4x5 sample, and not you.

Here's another sample.
- Opened the 10,000 ppi scan and cropped out the film borders. Ended up at 32,536 width.
- Hunted for a car snapshit with a similar sized headlight. Found one.
- ISO 200 5Ds RAW opened with NO sharpening, NO NR, NO optical corrections.
- Scaled straight to 32,536 using Preserve Details 2.0, NO NR.
- Took 2,500px crops of the headlights.

Well there goes the excuses of "muh tire is bigger!" and "muh shadow detail!" and "it's just a tire we need more details!" The 5Ds still wins despite being at the following disadvantages...
- ISO 200.
- Hand held with no IS.
- Headlight at the edge of the frame where the 24-70L II isn't quite as sharp.
- Shot wide open at f/2.8.
- Zoom lens. (Pro zoom, but still.)
- Headlight in shadow. (VW bug headlight is facing the strobes which would tend to increase contrast.)
- There were cars driving nearby ;-)

6x9 came very close here. But imagine if the 5Ds had been shot with a tripod at, say, f/5.6, with a prime like the 85 f/1.4L IS, with one headlight center frame where the lens is sharpest. And with no cars driving nearby (kek). It wouldn't be close. It would be just like the other comparisons. Even worse for 6x9.

Isn't it funny how you come up with any excuse you can whether or not it's true or even possible (cars driving nearby), and I'm willing to pit the 5Ds against that oversampled 10,000 ppi scan even with multiple disadvantages? Edge of frame hand held f/2.8 isn't even remotely fair to the 5Ds. And it still pulled ahead. Just like any high res FF or GFX would.

>nooooo you cheated i'm unbiased post raw!
I will. All in good time. When are you going to post...anything?

That 65mm is well reviewed/respected. Without having one in hand I can’t say if it’s sharper or softer than the 24-70 f/2.8ii at equivalent apertures. But it’s a good bet that it’s sharper at f/16 (f/6.8 equiv) center than the Canon zoom at 70mm f/2.8 edge.
>>
>>4367244
Film is more detailed here. Digital is just upscaled+sharpened and has color fog instead of grain.

Note: The film headlight is half out of focus and stsill looks more detailed.

You have a problem where you think sharpening equals resolution. Your lens does not project crisp edges. You can see the squiggly edges here and there where the sharpening algorithm got confused. The film is an honest impression of the image circle. The digital is heavily post processed to look similar but not quite as good. People processing like you are where digital got its reputation for looking sterile and plastic - because of all the tards upscaling and sharpening their 12mp DSLRs to 24mp 35mm film, which you're doing again with 50mp.
>>
>>4367284
It's not vaseline smear vintage crap. Film just can't take as much sharpening as digital. Some extra sharpening is typically baked into the demosaicing method so you literally can't get away from it. The edge crispness you are looking at is fake, especially with such fine details. You are probably used to this, but originally people complained about it looking unnatural.

Look at how the film headlight has more honest resolution of ultrafine details. On digital they melt into shaky sharpening artefacts or are missing entirely. The film headlight is a more demanding target too, with finer detail. The upscaled digital, struggles with squigglyness and false colors despite having less fine detail. the digital headlight which is also larger in the frame than the film headlight, just like the tire he pixel peeped, because he's repeatedly comparing closeups to a car shot from a distance (this is like comparing full frame and micro four thirds with non equivalent FOVs - and this is why he doesnt want to link the raw lest I show him this explicitly, and WITHOUT UPSCALING, he really doesn't want you to see what it looks like without gigapixel)

Preserve Details 2.0 is not in any way AI upscaling. Your lies (muh sharpening, muh AI upscaling) betray your true opinion, as does your "film is better but here's why it's not" posts. And the fact that you gave up posting your "film is better" blog post while I happily post the only fair, real world comparison from that blog post.

>really tells us why you dont want to show raws
I'm going to upload multiple RAWs. More comparisons are coming.

>It's just not artificially sharpened digislop.
Neither file was sharpened in any way. Give me a little bit and I'll show you what the 5Ds looks like with standard processing (slight NR, sharpening, optical corrections). As much as I find the psychology of this fascinating, there are real life matters to attend to.

How many times have I said that the only film that can compete with digital in the same format is Adox CMS 20 II? (I haven't tested any other microfilms, they probably can as well.) That's the only film that I have tested that feels like a high res FF RAW file in terms of detail and sharpness, in 35mm format. That's fine if you only need 5 stops of B&W, the light is conducive to using such a film, and you're willing to pay dearly for a scan that can actually capture what's on the frame. But for the vast majority of subjects and shots, that doesn't work.

I'll never understand filmfag insistence on "winning" this "contest." This board often mocks m43fags for outrageous claims. But shoot any film other than a microfilm in 110 size and compare it to m43. It will get its ass kicked. I've owned a Pentax Auto 110 with multiple lenses. Crazy little device. But I sold it because I never used it, because film sucks at that size. It's only good if you want a soft, grainy, "vintage" look with zero detail.

And we don't even have a film format as small as a cell phone camera or old P&S cameras. They produce good 8x10 prints, sometimes even 16x20, while film that size would be a few globs of grain.

You shoot film for a unique rendering. For fun. To learn more about B&W tonality, which helps your digital work. To play with old cameras. You don't shoot film for "muh infinite resolution!" or "muh 20 stops DR!" because that's just Ken Rockwell tier bullshit. (And his article on the topic was almost certainly a troll.)

But filmfags gonna filmfag just like m43fags gonna m43fag.

>muh Bayer mess! muh aliasing!
Can't point to those either, not even after scaling to 32,536 pixels.

I don't know. Maybe it's not fair. Maybe those details were ruined because a car drove by during the scan :-)
>>
Here's one example of applying some processing to the 5Ds side. It can probably be better though. You process differently when scaling 3.75x, and in a different order because doing something before or after the scale can make a big difference. I haven't had to think about that since the 5Ds.

Light-to-moderate LNR, CNR, sharpening, texture, and dehaze + lens corrections (default profile). Then scaled in PS using Preserve Details 2.0. Size difference is due to the lens corrections.

Curious to try this with DxO PhotoLab, and also with an AI scaling tool. I'll have to demo the latter because I don't own a license to one. Also very curious to photograph a headlight with a stopped down prime, center frame, and demo what the 5Ds can really do when it's not hand held f/2.8 edge of frame on a zoom.

Film looks a lot better in terms of amount of detail honestly resolved. And why wouldn't it? On line charts, and thus real subjects, low speed film is a nice comfy and fuzzy 80-100mp.

The digital is just upscaled clean smears. Less grain, but what grain there is is unsightly color fog that would smear even more if you got rid of it. The question is, do you want a detailed photo with grain, or a smudgy photo with weird colors?

The ultimate answer is, a canon 5ds is shit, and film is slightly better, way higher effort, and infinitely less versatile. If you really want high resolution photos that are actually quality, sell your 5ds and buy an a7r(i)v or a gfx100s. The gfx100s is getting very cheap and will mog every low speed film stock in 120 up to ISO 3200, and even edge out some high speed 4x5, if you've ever done paid work it should be essentially free to you (=1 wedding = 1 GFX)

The ultimate answer is that you are a nocamera nophoto who is ironically also a gear queer with a hate boner because you've lost so many arguments. Really the best camera for you, if you ever buy one, is m43.

Can't help but post this one again so that we can all marvel at the "honestly resolved" detail of film.

Good job wasting your time on a meltdown but if you can't clearly see that the left side is more detailed, you're blind, and it's a good thing you quit photography (since you have so much time to write these meltdowns and spam these invalid comparisons)

The funniest part about your meltdown is I told you exactly which digital cameras always beat film and which situations film quickly falls apart in. You just can't accept that your canon garbage isn't top dog. It's just better than 645. Most of your whining amounts to how you're surprised than 50mp vs 80mp isn't actually that huge, it's just a lot of extra very tiny details you need to zoom in to see.

I'm sorry, I really am, but medium format film still outdoes FF digital in these little edge cases that basically don't exist outside of strobe-lit studios. I'm so sorry.

I missed multiple obvious lies in this one since I didn't feel like reading your shit earlier. I love how film is better and digital has all these problems (but don't ask you to circle them in red), but also in case anyone believes their lying eyes it's not fair because the digital headlight is larger! Film is better but here's an excuse for why it's not!

The clear part of the digital headlight is 1,860px tall. The clear part of the film headlight is 2,178px tall. And this is obvious since the film headlight with frame doesn't fit in the crop, while the digital one does with room to spare top and bottom. Why do you have to lie?

>noooo the vw bug was shot at a distance!!!
I was standing further away than the Fuji photographer as I was at 70mm and he was at 28mm equivalent.

>>4367841
>I thought of the big phase one's, but they SUCK to use daily
there's a reason shitty inferior 35mm became the go to film format for everyday use back in the day. real medium format is huge and no one wants to use that outside of a studio.
the GFX has only the aspect ratio going for it. otherwise it's even more retarded than real medium format. lenses are huge and heavy, the body is bulky and you get only a 20% larger sensor for that. that's retarded.
if I wanted to get into digital medium format I'd buy a proper MF cam and a used 15 year old digital back or something like that. the GFX is a fucking meme and even fuji realized it as they're working on a full frame camera now

>>4367959
Yeah, the one thing going for it is that you can get a very shallow DoF with speedboosters or the mitakon 65/1.4, or using EF lenses that cover the sensor.

That aside, unbelievably mid in most regards.

They're the same picture, within the realm of a mild noise reduction adjustment.

>>4367938
tldr, 6x7 is 80mp and 6x9 is almost 100, it has more very fine details even if you hate grain and the eternal lack of artificial sharpening. Which, by the way, also looks better.
>>
everyone ignores the most interesting part with the fluff chopped out
-
These figures are supported by our colleague Henning Serger who has been making extensive tests of real world film and sensor resolution for the past few years. His figures show colour film with up to 135 line pairs per mm, B&W film up to 150 lppmm and finally microfiche films such as Adox CMS20 at up to 260 lppmm!! In his scientific tests the object contrast of the test pattern is 1:4 (two stops)....
Here is a list of equivalent megapixels for each line pair figure.

90lpmm = 28mp
100lpmm = 35mp
120lpmm = 50mp
140lpmm = 68mp
260lpmm = 235mp!!
This is the data actually on the film (Henning uses a projector too - you still have to get this either enlarged or scanned in and that always loses some resolution. The maximum optical scanning resolution of any scanner I’ve tested is just under 6000dpi and my best scanner peaks at 5300dpi. This gives a maximum possible digital camera equivalent of 38mp.
->If your scanner peaks at 3500 to 4000dpi (as many do) your maximum equivalent is 19mp to 21mp <-
-
it is impossible or impractical for most people to get absolutely all of the detail resolution ANY film has to offer anyways. you would need a a7riii or iv in pixel shift an a flawless macro lens to see the faintest detail on a slow as fuck 35mm slide. and all film has the same grain density... you need that same resolution on every 35mm slice of a larger format to see every last, little faint detial.

the effective resolution of the best epson flatbed, with a betterscanning holder and fluid mounting, is ~2300dpi and epsons actually have copy variation.
>The [imacon] X5 scanner has a dynamic range of up to 4.9 and a maximum non-interpolated optical resolution of 8000 dpi for 135mm, 3200 dpi for 120 film and +2000 dpi for 4×5 film

yes, film has more details. way more. very grainy details, that will never be sharpened like pixel peepers demand today (some sharpening is always part of demosaicing)
>>
>>4368038
everyone always says some imacon/flextight is almost a drum but the results from it always look less detailed and have less dynamic range/worse tonality than drum scans at the same dpi

I hate pixel peeping autistic niggers.

I shoot film because it's fun. Cleaning up, fixing, and playing with old cameras is fun. Trying different film stocks and experimenting with color filters in B+W is fun. Developing is fun.

Guarantee you his tests weren't even actually 1:4, but probably at least 1:100. Unfortunately I can't seem to find any original scans from these "tests" to verify the line pair contrast. What is Henning Serger hiding?

Oh, can I get you on record saying that Adox CMS 20 II should be at least 260 lp/mm and 235mp equivalent in the real world? Or even more? Please reply if you agree and tell me how many MP 35mm Adox CMS 20 II has in the real world.

Drums are generally better, but Imacons are good. The thing with Imacons is that there were more of them and they were easier to use = cheaper scans and even some people being able to afford them at home. But they clobbered the 4,000 ppi desktop scanners.

I found your problem: You're trying to compare cameras using an advertising website.

I turned sharpening, but not noise reduction, off, because
1: I don't believe raws represent hardware performance. Simple as. No-NR photos mean nothing to me. I pity the pixel peeper who thinks otherwise.
2: When the fuck do actual photographers leave noise reduction off for digital cameras? Only when they think raws represent hardware performance. Everyone cooks their raws, fool.
NR was left on c1 defaults. Automatic grain was turned off (C1 quirk).

All of these cameras produce nice photos. The sony is slightly more noisy, the gfx is slightly less noisy, but no one will notice. NEXT.

No, that's not when I spam posts.

All while insulting people who actually own gear (hurr that camera's absolute ass, that camera is a cannot, that camera is shit). It's no coincidence he's also a snoyfag.
filmfags = delusional resolution claims
snoyfags = every camera is shit besides muh snoy, snoy is perfect!
m43fags = smallest sensor best sensor only sensor!!!

See the last reply here? >>4368094 I wouldn't even respond in another thread where someone said "I just like film/film color/old cameras/the darkroom", unless it was to agree that those can be fun and film can give a unique rendering in both color and B&W. It's the difference between those of us with photos, and those who have none.
>>
>>4368110
>delusional resolution claims
There really is more resolution. Far more. Why can't you see it? Why can't you accept it without thinking people with careers to uphold are all conspiring against digital cameras - that they use instead of film because no one has time to do 8k ppi wet mount scans of every 6x7 frame?

Why can't you deal with the fact that the only way to fully exceed medium format film in every way is to ditch the canonikon and buy a glorious fuji?
>>
>>4368097
>no the site is biased!
>btw i specifically tuned the settings to try and make snoy look best
This is the problem with the human race. It's everywhere. Politics, religion, everything. Everyone falls in love with their beliefs and then defends them to the death, physical evidence be damned. If they can't generate conflicting evidence, they start writing books with no evidence. It's so fascinating yet so damn depressing. Corporations prey upon this shit with their advertising, turning people into morons for quarterly profits.

>"hardware" performance isn't everything off!!!
That's exactly what it is. It determines where you're starting from. NR tech is great, but comes with a cost and can create problems depending on the shot. If a camera is starting 1 stop cleaner then you know you've always got that additional stop without any heroic efforts that might fail you. I do agree that in real life you never turn NR completely off because at low settings it comes at zero cost. But it's not hardware performance.

I love my 5Ds. Do I spam the board that it's the best evah and play with settings to make it look that way? No. The new 45mp bodies are at least 1ev cleaner at high ISO with at least 2ev more base ISO DR. The GFX 100mp is even cleaner than those and with even more resolution/fine detail. But for me it hit a point where I'm not depending on heroic post processing even for very large prints. I do also have the R6 because in really shitty light, where resolution doesn't matter, it mops the floor with anything except MF sensors, even matching the A7sII on noise. (II is cleaner than III.)

Tell me the A7R IV or V works great for you with a little post work? Fine, I'm happy for you, it's a good camera, post some of your work. Tell me a GFX is ass and A7Rs have better or equal IQ, I'm going to laugh.

>I find it amusing that you get angry that the least practical application of film outdoes a subpar DSLR.

>>
>>4368103
You're pretty much right. If a camera meets your subject/print size/view size needs, it's fine. That's why phones replaced P&S, for most people they're fine and produce nice (enough) photos.

I'm still going to call bullshit on bullshit claims.

>>4368120
>"hardware" performance isn't everything off!!!
>That's exactly what it is
No, it's not. All raws are assumed cooked in firmware before they even touch the memory card. Proprietary software can be assumed to do whatever it wants to anything. If a camera is starting with 2/3s of a stop of NR, that's 2/3s of a stop you have to turn down in post to have the same amount of NR and detail as another camera. Only processed files are worth comparing. Specifically, to see if you can process them to be as good as each other or better than the other.

The only cameras that have no cooking are basically dumb sensors sold for astronomy and machine vision applications.

>But why isn't everyone noticing?
Only 3-4 people on earth care about the "huge" sony shading correction banding issue, so really ask why.

>I find it amusing that you have no evidence, not even a link.
I have linked some, others have linked them, you just posted
>uhh they faked it, their 1:4 contrast was 1:4000
No, they didn't. Even your headlight test proved me right. Absolutely more fine detail. If only you'd use the same test target to make it more obvious, but then you'd say you cheated and the target was secretly 1:400000 contrast and upscaled wrong.

I am not going to waste my time scanning my own film beyond what anyone needs just to settle you down. Why? I already told you.
No one has time to do a wet mount scan of every 6x7 frame ever. That's why digital won. And then the GFX100 came out, and digital really won.

Please stop having spastic, hysterical fits because a 5dsr is not higher resolution than ISO 50 slide ifilm in 6x9. It is better than the scans you're willing to spend time and money on, but the negative still has more to offer for critical applications.

>Proprietary software can be assumed to do whatever it wants to anything
Except that it can't because that's detectable and obvious. PtP detects even tiny, non-detail destroying amounts of deep shadow NR, which is why Canon gets shit for using shadow NR at low ISOs in their latest dual gain stage sensors.

>>I find it amusing that you have no evidence, not even a link.
Oh LOL it's you! I should have known LMFAO.

>I have linked some
You've linked the same old tired blog post where the IQ180 clearly had superior line pair contrast before aliasing vs Provia 6x7, and Provia went to mush at the same point it aliased. Where nearest neighbor scaling was used for the digital files. And where the IQ180 still pulled nearly even with 4x5 Portra in the field. Oh, and you posted a link to words.

>>uhh they faked it, their 1:4 contrast was 1:4000
>No, they didn't.
Prove it. Where are his original scans? Scientists publish ALL data and methodology. Where is his data, not his rhetorical conclusion? If it's really 4:1 I'll retract that claim.

>Even your headlight test proved me right. Absolutely more fine detail.
Yet you can't show us where. If someone asked me to circle in red where the 5Ds map beat the 6x9 map there would be red circles all over the map. No one has because it's not needed, it's painfully obvious. That's why you have to cry "noooo a better scanner operator error i swear film won!" I've asked you how many times now to circle where you think film resolved more detail? Crickets.

>If only you'd use the same test target
I did, and you had an excuse for that, remember? Nothing satisfies you, you always have an excuse. "nooo a car drove by during the scan!" LMFAO

Oh, and for the record: real world fine detail does not occur at 4:1. Film manufacturers used 1.6:1 tests for a reason. (1000:1 was for marketing.) Even that's not really accurate though. Many details have less contrast, and real world details aren't artificially long on one axis making them stand out from noise/grain.

That's why if you calculate the MP equivalence of a film based on its data sheet and then test it against a digital camera in the real world, it loses. 35mm Velvia 50 should have 22mp equivalent based on the 1.6:1 line chart tests, yet it's actually closer to 15-16mp. The real world is not a line chart. It's definitely not a 4:1 line chart nor a 1000:1 line chart.

I question his real target contrast because the reported lp/mm values do not appear to be congruent with that contrast and other tests. But we can solve this easily once I see his original scans, it's trivial to find the contrast in PS.

You have the link, right?

If you have to lie, then your argument is invalid.

Tell me: how does this photo make you feel inside? Rage? Anger? Seething? Asking for a friend.

>Even with a subject that is twice as large in the frame, digital has less well defined fine detail and less detail period than film
Well yeah, that's to be expected. 6x9 ektachrome is literal hundreds of megapixels.
>>
>>4370729
holy shit, if 35mm is this high resolution medium format must be insane. its not 400mp, looks more like an upscaled 36mp really. that means medium format is over 200mp.

if you can actually scan it this well, i dont think most people can

>>4370818

As usual, you have to lie to cope.
>digital has less fine detail
And you're blind. Which is why I won't even bother asking you to circle in red, I've asked a hundred times, you won't do it because you can't find more detail on film. But you also can't admit film lost.

Yep, you need your eyes checked.

Yep, digital is fucking awesome.

So tell us: how did 6x9 lose this test? A car drove by during scanning, is that right?

Buddy we can clearly see that the digital photos tire is much larger and the frame and that it has less fine detail.

And now here you are posting an even lower dpi scan and two different editions of a map with unknowable printing differences... yeah no bud, fuck off. Film is not worse because you're too lazy to scan or enlarge it properly. We can just look at the 10k dpi scan of the car and see it's 714 megapixels, if not more, i bet a 1000mp scan would reveal even more fine details. It's just pushing past what's even possible to print IRL.

His mental illness is likely preventing stable employment which is why he doesn't own a camera. I actually feel sorry for him for this. I hope someday he can get treatment and live his life.

>I agree, film won, but I just don't have the time, the money or the studio to shoot nothing but ISO 50 film and take multiple days to fully process each frame into a scan that would take up 5gb of server space.
Yeah, I get you. That's rough. Film is insanely good but there's a lot of "IF" after that insanely good that keeps you from getting your moneys worth in a lot of situations.

But if you only need so many UHR shots a year and do most of them for landscapes and in studios, film is the medium for you.

OP here, why did you gear fags have to shit up my thread?

I find it funny that the retard(s) in here fighting for film don't realize that 99% of the end results end up being viewed on a screen, and usually a very tiny screen. I get the nostalgia for film and the "process", but the realities of it is that the reward is not worth the cost. The irony is that diehard film fags would probably end up a better photographer with a digital because you get 1000x more attempts at the basket. This whole "workflow" circlejerk is so fucking gay, I'm over it. Go drink some fucking developer.


>>4368068
You're more into the meta of taking pictures rather than the actual picture. Basically a gearfag. Saying that would've been shorter. Look, I romanticized film for a long time too. I've owned alot of nice MF film kits. Film really does not fall within the circle or practical reality these days.

pic is from a recent trip to Yosemite on the GFX 50R with the zoom lens. Go pixelpeep

Is zoom nice? I have GF50 3.5 and it is so boring I cant stand it.
>>
>>4372442

The GF50 F3.5 is the cucked version of the GF55 F1.7 or GF63 F2.8

It's for people getting off muh 50mm is exactly like human eye muh. As if they could distinguish 50mm from 55mm

It's for people that are unhappy \with how big the other lenses are. That's it.
>>
>>4372442
The "kit" zoom is awesome. It's light, small, and sharp. Covers all the useful focal ranges. I have some Mamiya 645 glass adapted for it, but it isn't super practical if you want to shoot.

I take this lens + a spare battery and it fits nice and neat in a small camera compartment for my carry on backpack. It's so great to be able to travel with a good MF kit in your carry on along with all your regular things.

I paid $1200 for the body and I think $400 for the lens. I do wish the GFX lenses were smaller but it is what it is.

It's fine as a hobby and for niche high end artwork. I agree with you that going exclusively film is silly, the learning curve with digital is much shorter. I never understood the argument that being limited on shots somehow improves one's abilities, you improve through relentless practice.

Great shot btw.
>>
>>4372556
Unfortunately he's correct. Most people don't print, and most exposure to your photos occurs online. But if you do print, they stand out all the more for the people who view them.
>>
>>4372577
There's practice and then there's thoughtless button pressing. For most people the cost and relatively unforgiving nature of film forces them to at least use a couple braincells more when taking a picture if they actually want an image.
>>
>>4372580
why not just keep a tally of all your shots and use it to calculate how much it would have been with film
>>
>>4372581
You could to get perspective, but you won't be wasting time, money, or failing to capture a moment.

You can also just use your digital camera on fully manual settings, or only use an external light meter to set exposure, no chimping during your shoot...
Hell, if you really wanted to slow yourself down you could use an adapter and put your digital cam on the back of a view camera!
>>
>>4372580
People either get tired of thoughtless button pressing and improve, or their camera kit eventually collects dust. This was true with film as well.

That said, a lot of college programs start with B&W film, that's your first semester before you can take courses with digital or color film. I kind of like that idea because it establishes the history of the art, exposes students to the darkroom, and forces them for a time to think about their shots and not relentlessly button press. After that it's practice, practice, practice which digital favors. I guess I kind of agree, just not over long term.
>>
>>4372594
Fair enough. Black and white is also good for beginners because it makes you work on composition and good lighting before getting distracted by colors.

op is just snapshitting his vacations

the gfx50r is not appreciably better than a 36mp ff dslr at these sizes, if that 36mp ff dslr has an amazing lens on it. if you view at 100% the uploaded size the distant trees are slightly better defined i guess?
>>
>>4372603
Guaranteed the sensor could handle that range, just underexpose and push shadows in post. He didn’t do this on accident or on purpose
>>
>>4372631
It will get a little bit larger print or a little more sharpness and detail for the same size, but most will never print that large. D800e is a beast and competitive with the best today. If you don’t have GAS you could shoot it for life, IQ is that good.

I have Snoy a7R and Fagji GFX50R - yes sharpness is better if you look closer. Is it worth it? Depends.
