While it is too late to qualify for one of the nifty 2001 prizes, I would like to see your print. It will be helpful in compiling a larger database of printer performance, and maybe we will manage to come up with prizes for 2002. I asked the Pentax rep who provided the current ones for an MZ-D for the grand prize, a MZ-S for second prize, and a 77 Limited for third next year. What he gave me was the telephone number for mental health. Oh well, I have a year to work on him.
And, for some strange reason he got upset when I put the Optio-430 in my pocket. I don't understand why, I offered to do a review telling how well it stood up to a couple of years off heavy use.
