We can see the technology on both aspects, restrictive or more flexible, I think is more flexible on this case. On the other hand I still think that the "true B&W" is with film, but we carry comfortbles digital cameras. Life is so complicated by itself and if I can I intend to not complicate more Saludos cordiales Lluis El 24/09/2009, a las 16:03, Neil Beddoe escribi?: > That's the exact opposite to the way I think now.
