But that's not how the vast majority of people are beginning to use it im - I think my friend who went to NZ nearly gave himself a coronary worrying about the hundreds of dollars worth of slide film he was carting through security checks/X rays (as well as actually having to lug it about). His wife with the Nikon had a couple of cards - when one was full, she would find a 1hr lab, they would do her a set of prints and save the images to a CD for her. That's it - she may print out a few extras when they get home, but unlikely. It's what most people around here with a small digicam do now. tim - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
