Hi Mike,

  I know this isn't really answering you question, but why not use a
conventional camera and get the results on photo-CD. I guess it'll cost
around 40$ for the first batch and around 15$ for each subsequent write
(based on the UK prices). It offers much better resolution providing you
already own a camera.

Just a thought,

Keith.
