    Ya gotta love this. Why not post a picture of the camera itself?

    That was my FIRST camera
    ... when I was 9 y.o...
    ...9 frames per film...
    Dang, I had to choose what I shoot carefully...
    Last night I filled up 2GB card within 2 hours...

    I think I still have it lying somewhere in the boxes..

    Thanks for the note. Yeah, with just a few shots you have to pay attention. What's nice for me is not having to deal with 400 photos aftewards as well.
    thanks again
