AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! I have keept my Nikon F4!! This is just because of the reasons you yourself mentioned... instead I went and bought myself a Minolta Dimage 7Hi.. sure.. a digital, but alot smaller and easy to "hide" and with a lot of nice features... I don't think that I will get ridd of my F4 even next year when I plan to buy myself a FUJI S2 Pro or similar... Think again!! and again and again!!!
