There is a company in Big Sky Montana that specializes in skiing and rafting
photography. Last time I talked to them they were making the total
transition to digital cameras. I will talk to someone there and get an
update on that conversion and their experience to date. Their web site
doesn't offer any information on equipment used. I should have some
information by Monday. /jim

Maybe. But there was at least one Everest expedition featured on the
Apple and Nikon web sites with digital cameras and some anecdotes of
successful use of them on the Nikon forum on dpreview.
