I've read quite a few times about the latest generation of DSLRs, etc. such as the Nikon D810, Canon 5DSR, Sony A7R II, etc needing absolutely the best lenses, absolutely the best tripods, absolutely the best technique, etc. to get the best results that the sensors are capable of. I've never read discussions of large format film cameras talking in the same way. Presumably the same thing applies?
