So let's see if I've got this right. The ca. $700 digital cameras are not adequate for high quality color print work, enlargements, etc., but at least some responders are finding them adequate for on-screen work. My understanding is that most screens are something like 72 dpi; aren't "640x480 or 800x600" measures of screen size rather than resolution? Incidentally, I was astonished to find some very acceptable Web pictures are the result of the little throw-away cameras that are not much more than a lens and film in a cardboard box. Again, they wouldn't enlarge worth a darn, probably, or be suitable for fine printing, but they look better on-screen than a lot of what I've seen on the Web. Tom V.
