          ----------------------------------

Gentlepersons:

      We have acted as special counsel to GreyStone Digital Technology, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and as such we are providing this opinion
to you at your request.

      In our capacity as special counsel, we have examined: (a) the
Registration Statement on Form S-1, File No. 333-42040, as amended (the
"Registration Statement"), filed by the Company with the Securities and
Exchange Commission for the purpose of registering the sale of up to 5,843,550
shares of the Company's common stock (the "Shares") under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, (b) the prospectus constituting part of the Registration
Statement (the "Prospectus"), and (c) originals or copies of the Company's
Certificate of Incorporation and all amendments thereto, Bylaws and corporate
minute books. We have also examined originals or copies of the Company's
records of corporate proceedings taken in connection with the approval of the
Registration Statement and the issuance and sale of the Shares and other
records and documents we considered appropriate. We have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all items submitted to us as
originals and the conformity with originals of all items submitted to us as
copies.

      On the basis of such examination, our reliance upon the assumptions in
this opinion and our consideration of those questions of law we considered
relevant, and subject to (a) the limitations and qualifications in this opinion
and (b) the completion of the additional proceedings being taken as
contemplated by the Registration Statement prior to the issuance and sale of
the Shares, we are of the opinion that the Shares will have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action on the Company, and upon payment
for and delivery of the Shares in accordance with the terms described in the
Registration Statement and the countersigning of the certificate or
certificates representing the Shares by a duly authorized signatory of the
registrar for the Company's common stock, the Shares will be fully paid,
validly issued and non-assessable.
