In reply to sjminfife:
interesting indeed, having levels of focus all in one shot should be very useful in some photos, im thinking landscapes or a city or crowds of people. But a lot of the time its good to have OOF areas to highlight the main subjects - too much detail is quite detracting. I guess its whether youre looking for a hyper realistic image or a form of art
edit - Having looked at the photos in their gallery, it looks like you can still create OOF areas, and i guess having multiple light levels creates an automatic HDR which certainly has its benefits over taking a sequence of shots.
On the subject of film - I cant ever imagine going back to that, I suppose it still has a place for certain styles, but not knowing whether you got a shot right is just not worth it for me.
