Well, Bob, seeing the capabilites of contemporary high-end (and not only) digital SLRs I must confess I'm catching myself wishing to shoot digital in many circumstances, however not willing to compromise film-body-like featured body (at least having all the capabilites of my EOS-3, and some others). There are still a few issues holding me back to film (besides of money, of course): low-light, long exposure photography (I'm a huge fan of twilling/night scenic and urban photography), high ISO stuff (though I'm getting feeling high-end DSLRs cope with ISO 1600 and some even with 3200 quite well), many users still lamenting about very non-consistant ETTL performance with 550EX, some are mentioning even 1D and 1Ds - this is a point to worry about since flash photography is a large part of my shooting. Having said all that, there is still something magical in waiting for film to be developed and seeing the results. I still pick up my rolls frmo processing with a heart beat, though if this is a important/payable job, the heart beat is accompanied with some fear... :-) Alex __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
