Jean,

Better get yourself another hard drive. Over the years I have had hundreds of sessions with my Nikon D70. Most of these sessions entail at least a hundred images. All these taken at the "large," "fine" file size. I can imagine that multiplying that file size by three might begin to burden my slightly antiquated IBM 360 computer that I rescued from a dumpster back in the late seventies. I used to call it HAL, but the H fell off so now I call it Agripina.

I'm envious. I'll get me a new camera some day. Then I'll be a great portrait painter!

And here's a painting by Jean Kelly that has nothing to do with this discussion.
