The controversy around megapixels in today's photography world is big. And what is better resolution wise? The digital or the good old film technology?
Markus Hofstaetter gives some answers in a recent blog post on petapixel.com.
In this post he describes a photography job where huge resolution did matter. Since the required 300 megapixel resolution was pushing all limits of gear the photographer decided to apply two strategies.
Digital:
Using a Canon 5D Mark III he took a series of pictures which were stitched together in post processing to a huge high resolution image.
Film:
Applying a Linhof Master Technika loaded with Kodak Portra 160 VC film in one shot and professionally scanning that photograph.
The results are both amazing. - See the blog post for more details.
Apparently the customer went for the film version since he did like more the look.
