Hi Bob, Printing speed is directly related to size, you'll find that 4x6 prints are pretty quick out of most modern home photo-printers. There are many more options available for digital printing that avoid need to employ personal computers should you wish. My camera allows direct printing to a suitable printer and can also provide a thumb-nail sheet and date on photo if required. There are also photo printers with camera memory card slots which can read the now pretty standard card formats and image types. Also card can be taken to many newer labs for prints direct to conventional RA-4 paper. Looking pretty rosy for the plebs if you ask me :-) Cheers, Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications.html - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
