I have a friend/tax client whose tax returns I have prepared for years that 
"converted" from film to digital. His film and processing costs dropped from 
just over $20k to $400...he wondered why he owed taxes!  (He refuses to pay 
quarterly estimates) This is a guy that swore with his right hand on the NYT 
(Holy Scripture in his mind) that he would NEVER -EVER go digital...Then his 
clients required it...
