I am often asked whether the quality of photography on film was better than “these modern digital photos”. Since the Nikon D3, film no longer has a chance, the possibilities have even been significantly expanded, as the photos of the Olympic stadium in Beijing at night show. Interestingly, this topic has now been taken up by the blog about commercial shipping gcaptain.com.

Here is the link to the article. Russian colleague Sergei Dolya has combined his Nikon with a drone, which I think is the best idea for photographing objects such as ships. At least if you don’t happen to have a real helicopter at your disposal.
