>It still doesn't account for the fact that he's had to shell out the $2000
USD plus storage etc. to get 16 shots (and then more) instead of paying $20
for 16 shots each time.  You can't say someone is "saving" when they in
fact
have to shell out cash to buy something - that's part of the problem with
our consumer based society - we've been duped into believing we're actually
"saving" money by purchasing something we don't necessarily need.  We may
want it but we don't _need_ it.<

suppose Tom knows he's going to shoot 20,000 pictures next year no matter
what camera he has. the one with no consumable cost is going to have to be
a lot more expensive, even including support peripherals and time, to make
up for the one with a fixed consumable cost.
