Hi Mark,
Like you I appreciate shooting now far more than I have over the years of 
film, even though I'm not shooting the heavy duty assignments I did. But 
everything I do thee days on assignment is so much easier and relaxing with 
a digital camera, I wish it were available 40 or more years ago.
Maybe it's the years of what always seemed never ending projects and 
assignments all over the world and the pressures of them, carting thousands 
of rolls of film and always worried about if everything was working because 
you never saw any of it until you returned to home base was always a 
concern.

The fact we can with a quick glance at the back screen confirm we're doing 
OK and something is there has a great deal to do with the comfort feelings 
of today.
