Well, what about the cost of storing the digital images (and you do need multiple copies BTW)? They can be burned to CD, and you can get 500 or so per CD I'd guess, but you do need to have a computer with a CD writer...and that doesn't come free. It isn't that expensive, but it sure does enter into the equation. Storing film is cheap, put it in a box...but there really, at least in my book, isn't a clear winner as far as cost goes, and I'm hard pressed to accept a blanket statement that digital is cheaper, since I know for me, it hasn't been...but then, I probably don't have any idea what so ever what I'm talking about ;-) Austin - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
