Sure he can... they'll just be a smaller size to fit them on the screen. It's like liking up a bunch of negatives to look at. If you want to line up prints, you can make prints from digital files even easier than from negatives, so what's the big deal? It sounds like he's comparing digital files (non-prints) to prints from negatives, and that's an apples/oranges comparisons. If he wants to make prints and line them up, he can do that from either media. If he wants to look at the pre-print image, he has to accept compromises both with pics on a monitor and with viewing negatives directly. I would even argue that looking at digital pics on a monitor can be even easier and more productive in some cases than looking directly at negatives. chris
