Calvin: Bill pretty much says it all. I agree for computer purposes anything beyond the 3MP is more than needed and everthing out there is way beyond 3MP now anyway. If you mastered the SLR, all the concepts remain the same for a DSLR but you can do a bit more with the camera that might have been done later in the film processing, like enhanced color saturation. I agree fully with Bill, if you have good lenses with your film camera, try to see what you can find that will accept those lenses or see if there is an adapter that could make them fit. If you want control (f stop/shutter/iso/white balance/dof/manual focus etc), you won't want a point and shoot, although there is plenty you can do with them and they are convenient for their ease of carrying anywhere. Looking forward to seeing some pics.
Cheers,
Jack
