Oh, I have no doubt about that. Buyers are usually much _more_ willing to 
buy on the spot rather than order later. My point was that an 8x10 camera 
is not especially suited to immediate production of images. Think how many 
more he could have sold had he been using digital technology. But then he 
probably wouldn't have invented the Zone VI and that would have been a 
great loss.
