Just what is so important about this image ?

You will find this on our wall at ACME Digital Studio as a constant reminder of how things change....

Set your way back machine to 1999...

Shot with my brand new Nikon 950 (yes 2 whole megapixels!) after a whole day of shooting with 4x5" chrome film and Polaroids......

The film, processing, Polaroids and rental of extra lights equaled the cost of the Nikon! Client loved the large transparencies and told me the digital file was going to be "garbage". Still they used it in their next catalog - looked great. Six months later they bought their own digital - shot the products out back and told me how cool they were.... I never should of showed them how.
