I think that normally camera manufacturer has no right whatsoever to tell you what kind of manner you should use taking your photographs... But then again, at least 1/3 of my education was pure math... I agree with Frank, Mark, and Michael Reichmann. It is not that I pull a hair out of my head each time I crop or anything like that. It is just that I try to do as much as possible with my camera and lens while taking the shot, not afterwards... Ideally, all I needed do was to take a shot, scan it, resize it and add my standard frame to make it postable on the web. Otherwise, just take a shot, develop the film and print the outcome... But I am afraid, my approach toward the ideal would be purely asymptotic <vbg>... Boris
