Petru,
It's the "better" than what I question when he does his comparisons. If he
is lousy at film and scanning, then his conclusion is no surprise...and he
should be if he's going to do testing like this, and claim to be an
expert...but my take is he's not very good at film and scanning...so that
draws into question the validity of his conclusions.
