Robatoy was thinking very hard :

The first T* I saw was a 180 portrait lens and I got a pal to take a shot of me with it and the resolution it yielded was stunning. I still have some of those shots and occaisionally dig out a magnifying glass to wonder at the technology over again. I remember once in a moment of sheer stupidity, I told a group of my students that digital 'film' had no future. How could a photo receptor which has to have some sort of wiring and other macro components match film which works on an atomic level? I was of course blithely unaware of advances in IC chip technology and conveniently ignored the fact that the grain in film is clusters of those atomic particles and it is the clusters that digital competes with.
