      Just get a bigger memory chip and an adaptor for your battery recharger.

      I would definately take the digital camera. Instead of uploading your photos, you can have CDs made in Poland, but the price of memory cards have come down. Just take a couple of 2or 4GB cards, depending on how many pictures you usually take and how many pixels there are in your photos.

      You can buy batteries ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.. and that includes third world markets. Just get a larger memory chip and don’t shoot those huge photos.. a 640×480 image is good for nice 5×7 photos and can be blown up to 8×10 so you don’t need a huge image.

      I have carried a digital camera in foreign countries since 1998 and never have regreted it.

      My dad ALWAYS brings his digital cammera with him to Poland and we go every year. He got one of those 3 dollar converter thingie from radio shack to load his batteries in the normal charger. But if yours runs on just regular AA batteries then you can find those in basically any store (when in doubt go to Carrefour they have EVERYTHING). As for the photos I’d just buy a big memmory card or bring a laptop. Also make sure you set your cammera to make smaller images. As for film cammeras I have never had trouble getting the film developed in Poland but whatever.

      Right a bigger memorizer can help you.
