I'm thinking now that > digital = the potential for more images lost. It's already happening, My college's first digital class used Sony digital camera that used a 2.5" floppy disk & Apple formatted Syquest 44mb disk drives in the early '90s. The cutting edge photo stores that had digital setups then have moved on to the latest h/ware; Syquest is out of business so how do I transfer the images from that old drive to media today? Luckily, I have a few prints but there was a lot of work on drive. That's a 10yr span. For many of us, digital is a God send, I hate the 'wet dkroom', the fumes causes me illness; but I love the prints I make and know they'll be around, (my great nephew was just born! in a year or two he'll see his father's 21 years old baby pics!) but just a few prints of my digital stuff. What a mixed blessing! <paul> - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
