At this rate I can still afford to throw away a good % of my duff prints into the bin.
I suppose its relatiively early days and so a fast buck has to be made while it can - surely the process of producing a print from a digital image must be loads simpler ( ie cheaper) than the old chemicals methods.
you can tell I've not made the switch yet, still dithering

just a thought bob
- have a real look at how much it costs to print a digital photo on decent paper with an inkjet printer. 24 bit colour you could be looking at a minimum of £1 per A4 page - more with some printers. - 2 photo's per page? - & it will fade (unless you have Epson printer - another story).
