instant feedback alone is a huge plus to learning, plus the cost is $0
with digital so they're more likely to try stuff they wouldn't have
otherwise.

I wish my cost of converting from film cameras to digital cameras had
been $0.

students don't need to convert.

Or, that my continuing cost in using a digital camera was
closer to $0.

the cost to take a photo in digital is $0.

The newspaper that was delivered to my house yesterday was full of
advertising supplements. The idiots who paid for the cost of those
advertisements actually thought they would generate sales. They
shoulda checked with nospam.

the paper newspapers are also going away. it's nearly all online now.

companies also spend more money on online ads than paper ads, and
they're a lot more effective and trackable too.

again, people don't buy out of a b&h paper catalog. they buy online,
possibly in response to an online ad but more likely because of a
deliberate search for a product.


Get yourself an advisory job with B&H. Askfor just a small percent of
their increae in profits, if they take your advice.

Where do they get the digital camera, lenses, and all the rest of the
kit for $0?

who said they get the camera and lenses for $0?

however, total cost for digital equipment is less than film so that's
yet another savings.

Or, that my continuing cost in using a digital camera was
closer to $0.

the cost to take a photo in digital is $0.

So no one adds a new bag, a new lens, or software? No one buys a
computer or monitor? Zero cost to be digital photographer?

who doesn't have a computer?

it costs *nothing* to shoot pictures all day long, trying all sorts of
things and learning from it.


You must have some amazing equipment. Doesn't cost anything, and doesn't
wear out.

I don't think I would want anything quite so basic and small.

I have more than one digital and will sell them a week after I sell my
film cameras, including, but not limited to: Bronica, Minox; Yashicamat,
baby Rollei, Nikon FE, Nikon F3, plus assorted lenses $ accessories.
However I will sell them sooner, for the right price.
