I think we should take away all BD's Leicas and stick him in digital
purgatory for a year.  ;-)

Don't you get it - you can get commercial prints from your digital
camera...you don't need to do your own downloading and printing.

century's version of APS or 8-track tapes isn't laughable - it's down right
moronic. Digital is here to stay - and, unfortunately or not, it's here to
stay as the dominent capture medium in photography. My God, we're how many

camera market? And what percentage of that other 50 percent was disposable
cameras, rather than 'real cameras?'
