I have been trying to get excited about digital photography and I just can't. The good stuff is priced too high for amateur use and the cameras in the price range of a Leica are plastic. State of the art stuff today is outdated next week. The whole process is boring and the outcome has a very unappealing hardness to me. It is scary where this whole thing may lead. If I could find an affordable scanner that would scan 35 & 2-1/4 negatives or transparencies and a printer that would provide quality high resolution prints I might just take the plunge. The key word here is affordable. Affordable would be $2000 tops for both pieces. Of course, I am dreaming aren't I. Bob Bedwell << Film is not dead! Long live Leica! -- Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO >>
