Rob, I was going to call you a liar, but I realized that it is fall in the southern hemisphere. I used to have a Pro70, which I felt that it had reasonable resolution for a 1.7Mpixel digicam. Today, with the Minolta D7, my shots are clearer on the screen than any 35mm shot I scan with my S20. That's why I acquired a GS645 and a Mat 124G, to justify the cost of shooting film. (Ducking)
