(I've used one-time-use cameras to prove > my point.) Marilyn Getting people away from the idea that they can buy good photographs (by having the best / latest equipment) is hard. The trouble is there are always areas of photography where money does buy results ... the hubble space telescpope for instance has certain advantages over a Nikdoorf Pixelhacker for taking shots of distant galaxies for one example. But for most normal shots, a "pro" with a vision will produce better composed and lit shots with a compact than a tyro with a D1s. One time use cameras ... didn't we send some of them round the world ? Bob
