By the time the *istD came out, my wife was sending me out to buy it. There are all these little photo projects that she wants done that are just too much of a pain with film. I'd borrowed digital cameras from other people - 5MP Coolpix and so on - and they just didn't have the control of focus or macro quality I needed for them. She also knows a bit about cameras (she had a Topcon SLR before I convinced her that if she had a Pentax she wouldn't have to carry a duplicate set of lenses for herself - she now has an MZ-3 with 43 and 77mm lenses) and knows what each piece of equipment I own is capable of. >Nick (happy really, I think!) You will be. On the bright side if you get divorced you have more time to take pictures :) Leon http://www.bluering.org.au http://www.bluering.org.au/leon
