I was still using an old Yashica Electro 35 while I was in the Navy that year! You are right, the test slides I took of some kids at a store two doors down were incredible! As soon as I got them back, I trucked over and snatched that bad boy up! I can see where buying new helps the company, but then again, if people were not able to dispose of their old stuff, they'd be less likely to spring for some expensive gear that didn't hold some residual market value. I still like to think that we're 'helping out'! dwpost@msn.com
