You know, we have hundreds of people on this list and millions of people on the internet who own cameras who take pictures, and the pictures never get shown to anyone. I'd venture to say that after most people see the shot on the back of the digital camera, that's the last time it is seen. My 75 year old Mother-in-law has gone back to film, because it was just too damn much trouble to go stand at the machine and pick out digital shots. She takes her roll of film, has it processed and looks at all the prints at home, just like she always did. She already has prints from Thanksgiving. I do not. She has an old Kodak film camera. I have a Leica M8 with eight lenses. She's happy with her pictures. I'm still fussing with mine. -- Regards, Sonny http://www.sonc.com http://sonc.stumbleupon.com/ Natchitoches, Louisiana (+31.754164,-093.099080) USA
