Ok, I finally just about go all "digital" and suddenly I'm thinking about
film for our trip to Cuba. WHY? Seems the Cuban government is "prone" to
taking laptops from visitors and only returning them when you leave. If
you are staying in "homes" as we hope to be, then you are likely to have
your laptop confiscated.

So how to travel and back up Olympus Hasselblad and Leica digital cameras
for a month? The best I've come up with is the Epson P7000, but it does
not support the H'blad files and dng only shows as jpeg previews.

Anyone used the Epson? Any suggestions?

TIA

Alastair
