One of the joys of zuiko; what to buy.

I don't have the 16, 18, 21 to miss; but, somehow this 17in monitor
can't quite match optical projection. It's still a thrill to see a photo
show up on the 'silver' screen, especially if it's one which took alot
of planning/work to get right. That's what I would miss the most.

The Polaroid is gathering dust, the LT105 and XA do fine snapshots; and
I suspect you're right, the OM's would still take the serious shots.

It's taken years to start to understand silver based photography; how
much would carry over to digital? 

For now I've ordered more film, some projector bulbs, and sent the 2s
off for another cla.

Still like the digital OM1 shutter sound, fun idea.
