False; a multitude of DSLRs (and indeed, compact
cameras) now exist that
will directly interface to a (certainly considered "irrepairable" by
you) printer. No PC necessary. And, given that you have anything that
can read from a CF card (which is trivially adaptable to an IDE bus),
you can read that, as well.
And of course, with the cheap price of memory cards, you can use it as a
"write once" card. It is even being created right now, people discovered
that is nicer to have a "write once" card than download lots of photos to
the computer. Very rational. And you can use the camera to display photos on
TV :o) Do you have a TV, eh? :oD

Most sony cameras have. Ah, talking about transfering...there are (old
and cheap) mavica cameras which uses 3 1/2 diskettes which can be read in
anything.
The effective resolution of 35mm film is IIRC
considered by
professionals to be in the 27MP range; DSLRs are rapidly approaching
this.
I have a Nikon coolpix 2000 2.1 MP camera. My photos rival the quality
of my Zenith (russian) film camera in 10 x 13 format. Why do I need more?
