[font color=\'#000000\']With regard to student use, very few students will actually use the D60 unsupervised, we have a Fuji 2400 and, now, an E-10 for their use. However, I'm moving towards cards rather than microdrives, because of the 'eggs in a basket' syndrome. I fancy a couple of 512Mb cards, I know its more expensive, but I think it is more robust.
I've just picked up the camera today, 4 days from ordering one (!) and I'm surprised how sturdy it feels, more solid than my EOS5 but less so than my EOS3. I bought a 128Mb Sandisk card to try and I'll see how that fares for a week or two before making the final descision on storage media.
Must get another battery and battery grip.
Thanks to all who have so far, more experiences, info etc would be welcome.
