a friend of mine received a digital camera for Christmas after complaining for almost a year that her film camera wasn't working the way it should. she's about 65, not very familiar with computers, but struggles with them for doing her accounting. she thinks digital cameras are a godsend. she can look at the picture she took and see immediately when it is bad and take another one. she also doesn't have to print the ones that are bad. once she has decided which ones she wants to keep, she knows she can take the memory card to Walmart and get them printed for 29 cents each. she only has to print (and thus pay for) the ones that are good. that is the only point that matters to her and it is important enough that she is willing to spend time trying to figure out how to use her computer to copy the images and all sorts of complicated things. it was also enough to go out and buy another memory card and a second set of batteries so that she will be prepared.
