Keep in mind - the photographer takes the picture - not the camera. In this sense it doesn't matter if you use Pentax or Canon. If you have found the tool that fits your needs, then be lucky. I prefer Pentax as it fits my needs, but I would make the same step that you did, if that wouldn't be the case. ... >Regardless of how much the body costs, plan on spending twice as much. >You will probably need a MicroDrive or two, extra batteries, a charger, >probably a couple of new lenses, you will need to upgrade your computer, >your printer will NEVER be good enough, and you WILL want to buy Very right! Regarding the printer: I have seen the best results coming from Epson's Stylus Photo (especially 2000/2100). But you should consider a print service, too. Try www.filmundmail.de - they have an Agfa printer with 400ppi. They are fast and the prices are OK. Indeed they are much cheaper (and better) than an inkjet print made at home. Cheers, Heiko
