You make a good point except this shot was submitted and accepted right away because no other photog had a shot of the event left in their (digital) archives. He had his assistants went back through thousands of slides to find a shot, any shot of her once Lewinsky was identified. Still, I get your point. I said that I didn't believe this issue was an indictment of digital per se, it was just one example that makes one wonder about how this medium will affect photography as communication. I admit that no one is yet sure, least of all me. -Brendan MacRae - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
