Not much different. I like this argument. I tried "Paint with light"
photos
when I was a kid, the ones where you walk some small light around in
a dark room, camera shutter left open. Eight pictures from a Polaroid
might be $12. Fifty pictures from a DigiCam could be 10? wear and
tear on the cam & rechargeable batteries. Seems like an easy
comparison.
