Then...consider your LABOR SAVINGS from going DIGITAL: 

          1)  no purchasing, receiving, or inventorying of consumables 

          2)  no loading or unloading of film cassettes

          3)  no processing of film, handling chemicals, or equipment maintenance

          4)  no clean up or hazardous waste disposal

          5)  instant results / no returns to the job for re-shoots

          6)  easy, on the spot measurement and annotation of indications or defects

          7)  compact, inexpensive and permanent archive on CD's

When switching from film to digital many users will recover their investment within four or five months...then the savings can begin at the rate of over $10,000 per month per system.
