Back to geotagging, I wasn't aware of the electronic noise but yes you have a point - I think the ideal camera for me would simply be one with a bluetooth or PMR transceiver and a fixed plus a programmable OS partition so that I can screw up the programmable bit but never the essential picture taking portion Next time you mail Pentax, please tell them =) In line with Windows 7 - I am a camera. They listened to me. I invented the frigging thing.
