I have 4 camera bodies. *istD, 2 x MZ-S and an MX which was my first SLR and I keep for sentimental reasons and for long exposures. So no I haven't. >2) How many are in the process of doing so (like Bruce, who is actually >selling equipment) as opposed to "thinking about it," which doesn't >count in this survey. I'm not even thinking about it with the current level of digital technology. When we hit 24 megapixels with 3 colours per pixel, I will start thinking about it. I am also going to keep shooting Kodachrome until I can no longer get it. I do not think I will be buying another film body. >3) How many have made the switch to digital, but keep a film camera >around for one reason or another, although you do not use, and have not >used, the film camera since acquiring your digital camera? I have used and continue to use the my film cameras. They are different tools for different jobs. >4) To put the numbers in perspective, how many list members are there. Lots. Most of them are fairly quiet though. Leon http://www.bluering.org.au http://www.bluering.org.au/leon
