I have a question that perhaps you may have a solution. There are times when I travel or am at some kind of party (ie, weddings, etc.) when I would like to include myself within the photo using the same high quality Nikon equipment that I use for others. Most times, I do not carry along a tripod, so I need to ask some passing person to do the favor. I could set the camera on automatic, give a 20 second tutorial on shooting Nikon cameras, get set for the picture, smile while I pray that the person is selecting the right target to activate the auto-focus and auto-exposure, then position the camera for proper composition. That seems to work "reasonably" well. And, there are times when I'm carrying the manual Nikon (camera and/or lens) that it's a real random event. (Thank heavens for TTL flash....it cuts out one variable.) I don't always carry my P&S, and even then, it's only a fair camera compared to the "bang" one can pull off with a decent Nikon lens and professional film. Christmas and New Years is coming up and ...... you get the idea. Can anyone suggest a technique? If it's non-Nikon related, please feel free to e-mail. Ron Hashiro Honolulu, HI [EMAIL PROTECTED]
