Digital is making inroads at the other end of the age spectrum, too. My mother (90 a couple of weeks ago) has severe arthritis, and would find turning the pages in a photo album a rather laborious process. But with a digital photo frame she can look at a few hundred images without lifting a finger, even though she is otherwise not a part of the digital revolution (no PC, no eMail, etc.). My brother and I coordinate so that either of us can produce an updated set of images on an SD card. While a VGA-resolution image at 72dpi may not be up to the standards of a high-quality print on archive paper I doubt if the difference is discernable to my mother's eyes. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
