After processing I always save as jpeg, because RAW is only any use in either the camera manufacturer's software or by using a plugin compatible with that manufacturer's format of file.

cool, so assuming i don't want to change anything ie I'm happy with the image, I can simply save any of the RAW as jpegs

I have a Minolta Dynax 7000i complete with 'data cards' depending on what sort of shot you want to take you insert a different card and it - is supposed to - helps with the menus. A lot of faffing about for very little benfit never really used them but loved the Dynax itself.
Now have a Canon Ixus 750 and am very happy with that thank you very much.

No need to open the canister, use a tounge tool to pull the film out of the canister then put it onto the jobo rolls as they were self loading.

Anyway, i have an Nikon F80 SLR and Yashica TLR. Plus mabey ile get the F2 from my dad one day. still have tanks and chems in the shed for BW, a freind of mine has a proper home developing machine that does everything for you and can do colour & paper too. But he develops 5"x4" film.
