One of the funniest parts of this weekend is that everyone is snapping
picture of each other. If you don't like having your picture taken, it
could have been unnerving. Of course, the homebrew helped considerably
in this regard.
aaaIt was interesting especially at night to have all those flashes going
off. It was weird to be surrounded by the paparrazzi :-)
The FA* 200/2.8 makes an excellent portrait lens - okay, maybe too sharp.
It was also nice to see such a great collection of Pentax equipment. A
lot of *istD's, but also MZ-S, LX, MX, ME's and the 645/6x7 (thanks to
Norm for representing the brotherhood). More importantly, a LOT of
lenses, Pentax, Sigma, Tokina, etc. It was really helpful to be able to
try some of these, and my wish list has definitely growth. And I (maybe
Tan as well) would like to thank Cesar for figuring out how to work the
damn AF/MF clutch on my Tokina 80-200 (and her Tokina 28-70). It's a
pleasant change to have that feature not be a random event ;-)
aaaNo worries mate! Did I get that right? Always happy to be of service.
I know how professors have the book knowledge, but may lack the street
knowledge :-)
Still have not culled through the digital shots,

Panama City, Florida
P.S. Shot four rolls of 120 film - two in my 645n, two in Bob's 67II
Shot one roll of b&w 35mm in my LX
Shot one photo of slide with the contest roll in my LX
Only took 350 digital shots...
