I see a lot of creative replies in this thread. I would like to suggest a contracted example/analogy to the camera/lens/sensor capabilities and the eye.
I we choose an average camera setting for a handheld exposure of F 2.8 at 50mm and 1/60 sec, I suspect the human eye would be about 2000 ISO in terms of sensitivity and quality. Just as cameras have different quality sensors and lenses, the eye varies as well.
nice shot Robin- Montana can be spectacular

Part of the requirement is that the photos be printed for each person immediately, not after 10-15 photos. So currently I am exchanging the cards after each 2-3 shots, depending on the work flow.

Interesting array of views on this subject. I am waiting for a response from Olympus on the issue of card socket wear/inserts. I will post their info when I get it. I think wifi is the way to go for this situation, which is 150 or so photos to be taken and printed in real time over a 2-3 hour period.
The WiFi solution is also something I was thinking about.
I would need to set up a LAN in order to do that, but it would probably be the more elegant solution. The printer/computer was not close enough to the shooting location for a cable connection.
I will need to experiment with an Eye-Fi card. It is also not something I expect to be doing very often.
Yes, I am actually concerned about the wear on the camera end, not the cards, since I can use a couple of low capacity cards for this purpose.
Does anyone know how many insert/pull cycles to expect with SD cards? I am concerned about the camera slot wear for a situation where the cards need to be replaced repeatedly for a shoot and print situation.
Actually, I am finding that the OMD E-M5 is focusing faster than any of the DSLR's I have had. This will depend somewhat on the lens design of course. It is amazing how good and compact the various mirrorless designs have become.
Nice. Thanks for sharing.

I was referring to the use of an ND filter allowing one to open up to a larger F-stop in bright situations creating a shallower DOF.
