    It looks like a really interesting event. A minor point perhaps, call me a crumudgeon if you want but ..... don't you think the image on the GG of ther camera in the picture should be upside down instead of right side up as it is? After all part of the advertised event covers a number of technical topics and the knowledge of same is certainly not illistrated by that image.

    The camera is one of those new fangle Digital jobbies. It has a billion pixels and takes the image and shows you what it would look like in a Pt/Pd print. The camera cost about a 1 dollar a pixel. So you do the Math.
    Oh and it's being produced by Kodak.
