Actually the photos will be taken on both 35mm (Canon 1V) and 6x7 (Mamiya
7). I have to balace the need for high quality shots with the fact that I am
photographing very fast, very intense hunting dogs (continental pointing
breeds) in some pretty rugged terrain in a number of countries.
If I could, I'd do it all with my 5x7 Linhof but that thing ain't designed
for much belly crawling in a Czech forest.
As for digital cameras, my concern is as much with resolution and sharpness
as it is with the shortcomings of these cameras when it comes to rough,dirty
and demanding shoots far off the beaten track.
