1/8" ??? And what would it be in a normal measurement system? ;)
I see you took the leap of faith in digital photo... I couldn't do it, in fact my cameras are older and older... The one I bought recently is a Foca (Leica m3 french copycat) from 1953!!! I so much love it... What a freaky nerd I am.
I got a nice digital SLR camera for christmas and spent a good chunk of last Sunday figuring out how to use it.
It's frigging awesome. I'm so used to old style photography, where there were so many ways to fuck up film and print exposure and processing that the process of really even understanding something as elementary as the relationship between aperture and depth of field was very hard: You had to perform an experiment where you observe the relationship across carefully controlled exposures, but you had to get the processing and prints right before you saw whether or not your exposures were correct.
With Digital SLR, you can do that whole process of experimentation in a few minutes. Last Sunday, I probably learned more about photography with my digital SLR than I ever did in any photography class I ever took. I'll show you the images sometime.

You know at a point you will just have to start making your own cameras.
