Original poster: "by way of Terry Fritz <twftesla-at-qwest-dot-net>" <rblaisdell-at-juno-dot-com> Digital Cameras can also do all of the things you said that 35mm can do. A decent digital camera in the range of $400-500 can do all the things you describe and they will print 11x17's well to. I have seen them do all of those tricks. Ry
