MJ et. al,

I have had a few extended stints with digital cameras, Agfa 1.3MP, Sony 
3.6MP, Ricoh 3MP and Canon 2MP, I shot them where ever I went until the 
batteries were exhausted or the memory card was full, whichever came first 
(often the batteries died first). I found it very easy to cull the garbage however 
in all cases if I actually ended up with a great shot out I found myself wishing 
that the image was on film. I have yet to use a good 4+MP camera but I 
expect that I will still feel the same until digital far supersedes film not just 
WRT the raw number of pixels but in noise, dynamics, effective film speed 
and shutter lag performance.

Cheers,
