Sometimes what you say and do is really scary because it is too damn similar
to what I think and do. That might just make you pretty damn weird. I use my
C2000Z mostly for product photography plus a few snapshots. I have my studio
stobes set up with umbrellas and let the flash on the digital camera fire
them as slaves. It works very well. I think the digital SLR will be very
nice for macro work where it is very hard to know what things are really
going to look like and the lab wait is non-productive. I still prefer film
for many things. They each have their place. /jmac

Wanna know my second biggest gripe about digital? Quality is first, of
course, but I'm not going to get into that now. Some people are simply
incapable of seeing it.
Here goes, the #2 gripe:
I've probably had a digital camera longer than 90 percent of the people on
this list, a Camedia C-2000Z. It's been "in house" since November of 1999.
Since then, we've (mostly me) taken probably about 500 photos with it. They
come out of the camera as a file with a meaningless gobbledygook name made
up of numbers. So, am I supposed to rename every one with something
meaningful, a name that'll jog my memory five years later so I'll instantly
say to myself, "Oh, yeah, self, this is the picture of the female Martian
eating a peach"?
