Well, it sure is too bad she had that experience. But then there are folks
who have had Leica Ms, Rs, and Digis crap out on them. But if the R60
viewfinder doesn't work for you, it doesn't work for you. That, after all,
is what it's all about.;-)

No, it was the D60.  A friend of mine replaced her D30 with the D60 and let
me use it for a day at an ASMP workshop.  After using the R8, all other SLR
viewfinders are too small and dim for me.  She has already had to send the
D60 back to Canon to be worked on.  She lost two important clients because
all of the photos were corrupt and couldn't be recovered with any of the
recovery programs.  She has the camera back now but is afraid to rely on it.
