I'm glad you summarized that, it was my read also. This makes no sense. First Kodak solidly uses CF so there is no EXIF / Smart Media camp as indicated. Recently Kodak is solidly behind flash pix format (I think there might be investment). This article does not indicate whether this EXIF uses flash pix or other proprietary technology (which means that they hope to make $ on licensing). Kodak previously tried putting this meter on with the Photo CD .PCD format they are still writing down that fiasco. OK now we got Digital Imaging Group, digitalimaging.org which seems to be promoting Flash Pix and Canon is a member of that. Canon Inc. though is "the" Canon and open format (no royalties) would sell a lot more cameras and printers / ink. HP is pushing JPEG 2000 file format work group (work in progress) also an open format (sell printers / ink). jjb
