Eh...if the luddite photographer never used a film SLR with a digital display (like me), then it's a bigger step (I mean, the LCD display showing f stop, etc). If they used any film SLR built from, what, 1995 on, the transition to dSLR is probably close to zero pain.

I went from a Pentax K1000 to a Pentax K100D, and it was a bit of a transition.

I do say, I wish we had those lithium batteries back in the day, a pair of those would run a light meter for decades!
