I think the problem with the car analogy, is that each automobile that you own is a complete unit in and of itself. Nothing need be interchangeable from car to car in order to get the most out of each of them. Obviously, not so with cameras, where most of us desire a system with interchangeability of lenses, bodies, flashes, etc. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
