I have no problem with digital technology helping to create an analog product. I just don't want to have to stick it into a computer to read it. | |

For one thing, I can read the magazine while I eat, while I sit on my terrace, glancing up at the clouds over the Caribbean, or while I sit on the um, personal hygiene appliance. To read the DVD, I have to sit at my computer, insert the DVD, navigate through it, and prolong the neckache I get from trying to read the computer screen with my trifocal/"progressive" lenses. I spend too much time on the computer already, and I would rather spend that time reading APUG forums.
And besides... hasn't anyone noticed that the Extended DVD's are... you know, that "D" word? I mean, we're not on the ANALOG photography user's group website for nuthin'! I prefer both my photography and my magazines to be analog, thanks.
Oh, and a last minute edit:
And besides, the magazines are beautifully printed! Sorta like a silver gelatin print! | Oh my god,
Should I use a horse and buggy too!!!!!!!
This DVD is full of great things. Mostly interviews that I find hard to hear in a book. I can't wait till the next one comes out. I have seem Barnbaums darkroom, Kim Westons darkroom and studio, and the one on one interviews are great. Oh also having the Photographers show prints and talk to you about them. that is only possible if you do a workshop.
IT IS NOT JUST PHOTOS. IF it were I won't get it either.

Mike Andersen | I guess you must enjoy sitting in front of your computer more than I do.
Yes, I've seen some of the darkroom tours, and listened to some interviews... but the main reason I buy Lenswork is to see and be inspired by good photography. And I'd rather do that with a book in my hand than a mouse.
Unless, of course, it were my own darkroom being toured. Hmmm... Hey, Brooks...!
No wait, then I'd have to muck the place out. Forget it!!  | |
