RE: Digi-Boy
Get your own effin' tape, Frank. In fact, in keeping with your colorful bike riding attire, why not get a bright coloured tape. Gaffer tape comes in bright colors as well as Pro Black. Hey, that's great - it's a super camera and the lens is surprisingly good for a basic, low cost, kit lens. A friend of mine took one to India with him and, from what I can see of the pics, you'll be happy with it. Welcome the Digis-R-Us club. Now you'll have to learn about Photoshop, get the newest software, buy a new computer, probably another memory card, and a see how much money you save by not shooting film LOL Shel [Original Message] From: frank theriault I've just acquired a *istD, along with an f3.5-5.6 18-55mm AL.

Re: Digi-Boy
Frank, Since you came out of hiding I may as well too especially because of your news. Congratulations! I guess I can loan my spare *ist D to someone else at NPW on GFMtn... of course a set of lenses will always be available for use on the mountain. As for myself, I have not been shooting much though I am headed up to NYC for the weekend and may take a few snapshots. I did take quite a few shots at the baseball Washington Nationals last preseason game this past weekend. I have been contemplating taking the 645n and 67 out for a spin one weekend here in Baltimore. One problem I have is the one place that I found to develop bw and 120/220 film does not compare to my place back in Florida. I may have to rely on transparencies I guess.
