Maybe I am not anticipating how my photography would adjust to the shift in perspective my current lenses would give me. ---------------- Chris Why in the world would you need to rebuild your kit for digital? ... Tina Tina Manley ASMP, NPPA, EP, PI http://www.tinamanley.com ------------------------------ Let me stress I welcome Doug's and Tina's input as I am a great admirer of their work and only wish I had their skills. It was under Doug's influence I got a SL2 with which I am very happy and which is in itself one good reason to continue to use film. Tina's photographs keeping reminding me that a M8 would be nice. Maybe next year. All the best, Chris
