However, I knew I was going to get one, as the wife had been complaining about the amount of film i was using and the processing costs. My criteria, was that I was going to get one before I retired, which was at the time about 12 months, and I knew that if I didn't get it before that time, I would never get one, so I went out and bought it and just dealt with the price and its effect on the budget. I have never regretted it and it is producing great images on our vacation here in Europe. Which I hope to start showing soon.
