[LRflex] Re: DMR question .

Jerry, it's even worse. I scan them, selectively of course, then upload them
to my service bureau, pictopia.com. When I have a sale I order lightjet
prints on Fuji Crystal Archive paper. A lot of my usage is just foolong
around stuff that never gets printed. I still remain unconvinced that
digital equals my Leica M in quality.
