This would be great for when the family wants some snaps of
old aunt Clara. Just email them to everyone.
Quality would not be much of an issue and
you could pull it out and put in some film when a keeper shot arose.
No wasted film on things you don't want in the first place.
* NOTE: Aunt Clara is a fictional character and no offense is implied
or intended.
