Zuiks,

When I am reading about digital cameras, some mention asa ranges and some do 
not.  How does asa relate to a digital camera?  Specifically, does an E-10 
have variable asa settings like a film camera?

Maybe I can't see the trees for the forest; but is the sensitivity of the 
electronics in the digital camera not the issue?  And if so, does one vary it 
electronically vis a vis the lighting situation one is in?  If so, could you 
then not have many different exposure levels on one Smart Media card having 
varied the sensitivity of the camera so that a uniform data stream goes to 
the card?  I am soooo confused. (g)

Still on the "digital musings" kick, but finding some answers.
