Obsolete? It was an obsolete advantage over 20 years ago..... GPS? Why? Why not a MP3 player plus a full Siriuis Radio adapter too? It's a camera....... not a Swiss Army Knife...... Frank Filippone red735i@earthlink.net the Leica d200 i ordered from b&h just arrived. when i put the 512 mb, er, um, agfa, pan, 100-3200 variable, er, roll of film in it, the counter wound itself up to 67. forty seven pictures before i have to change, um, film? holy smokes!! LEICA HAS NEARLY DOUBLED THE LENGTH OF A ROLL OF FILM! i can now take 67 pictures without having to change, er, film, while everybody else has to change at 37. sweeet! and i also discovered that it has an input for a gps! so i no longer have to wonder exactly where that drunken photo came from, it'll be in the EXIF data, i mean, it'll be printed on the leader.
