Digital BW, The Print

Micheal,

Yes. I got rid of my darkroom, and have scanned all my good negatives and have prints of them. I can do practically anything I need to do with
the digital, and have no processing, film costs, etc.  If I want a panorama, I just take 2 or 3 photos and stitch them together in photoshop.
Only takes a few minutes, and you can't tell it wasn't all one shot.

With the 6.3 Megapixels, the canon will have the highest megapixel count in consumer cameras, for a little while, any how. And they are large
pixels. I already can get very sharp 12x18 prints from my D-30 for everything but far off landscapes, and with the 6 megapixels, that will
easily do landscapes. Also, it isn't that much more money than the D-30 was when I got it. $2900 is a very good price for canon with those
specs.  There's a huge article on it and it's features at the digital preview site, and also a place you can actually buy one now. (Of course
I don't imagine they'll actually be shipping til April).

I don't suppose as an architect you'll be able to get by with 35mm format, but canon does have those 3 tilt and shift lenses, so you just
might if you don't need larger than 16x24 prints.
