One thing to remember concerning digital cameras is to gauge the application. The best a run-of-the-mill PC monitor can display is about 72 to 150 dpi -- anything more is wasted on all but the few who have top of the line monitors. The average printer is limited to about 300 to 600 dpi. So high priced digital cameras boasting ultra high resolution are wasted on most apps. It is much more useful to get a range of lenses, especially macro, than to go for x,000 dpi resolution. ---------------------- Byron Johnson, Director Texas Ranger Hall of Fame and Museum P.O.
