It is obvious to me that my experience is not unique.  It comes as pretty
much of a shock to all new removable lens Digi-Camera users.  

Film has no analogy at all.

Amazing that discussion type it is not more prominent in this kind of
"environment".  ( Speaking of the LUG, but would be applied to other forums
as well.)

There is not a single product that has ONLY good points....  and for
Digi-Cameras, talking about live-view, pixel counts, ISO, etc is all
secondary to the rather profound change that dust and the digital sensor
world require a new skill set called sensor cleaning......  How?  Frequency?
Products, both good and worthless? How to avoid the problem as far as can be
practical?

Please continue to instruct us as ( na?ve) users with your techniques and
knowledge.....  We really need it.
