   Aha! Good point!

Yeah - I hadn't considered the fact that you could use a smaller
apature setting, having the benefits you mention. 

These units were the flash*less* ones, specified generally for
outdoor daytime use. I didn't check the film speed on the ones with
the flash (which DOUBLES the price of the camera :-)
