Perhaps folks are just seeing the difference between images produced by a sensor versus those produced by film. At one time I had wanted to buy the Digital Module for the R8, but after 18 months of using the isDS, I can't justify it, nor do I have a discretional $6,000 for it, unless I sell my home. ;-) The big difference to me is the immediacy of having a digital which makes photos that are very comparable to that of my film cameras... and to me, being able to hold the slides in my hand and being able to store them without worrying about disk failures.
