Yes Fred, -- Fritz Dimsak it is! Off hand, I do not recall the make but it was not an SLR, and I paid Rs. 1000 for it in 1973-74. I remember trying to get the whole of the St. Anne Church (Talaulim) in the view frame only to find out after the film was developed that the church was cropped on one end or the other. For my second shoot, I took the precaution of marking exactly where I stood, so that depending on which end the result was cropped, I would accordingly move my marker for the third shoot. After several more arduous treks back and forth on foot, I realized, it doesn’t quite work that way. If it had, I would have made a living as a photographer and even showed up for the release of your book, "Another Goa".

Dom, are you referring to the late Fritz Dimsak? And was your camera a Zenit? That was the only SLR I could afford in 1985 or so, when I managed to buy one from Russian tourists here for Rs 1100. It served me well for awhile, and was entirely manual. Nothing fancy like the digitals from today's Japan and elsewhere...
