Hi, Tim,

I agree in terms of the reversed image of a TLR not being a problem.  I didn't
find that it took me too long to get used to it.

Mine, especially since I have to use a handheld meter, is a very slow camera to
work with anyway, so I have to be very deliberate with it.  I pretty much only use
it for architectural shots, or other things that, like buildings, don't tend to
move around much.  So, which way the image is, is of little concern.

regards,
frank
