This is a great thread!

People may think that Ansel Adam's "Zone System" is past it, but the more I look into it, the more contemporary it seems. The main reason for that is because it is a system which addresses both exposure and development picture-by-picture. Therefore post-capture digital processing (which enables one to do just that, even in 35mm format) has actually made the "Zone System" more feasible/user friendly than ever.

Personally, I have simply been looking at only the "capture", but that is just half of the story.

I can easily imagine Ansel Adams, were he still with us, having a ball with all the post-processing possibilities available today.
