Ouch! Sorry to hear about your troubles Gianfranco. At least you can be satisfied because you were able to prove two things:
a. bad things sometimes do happen to good people; b. it does make sense to carry a back-up body, or two, or three... Good luck with a swift recovery on all fronts. Stan On Aug 29, 2005, at 10:18 AM, Gianfranco Irlanda wrote:
Hi everybody, As I mentioned in my last message, I left home to the Aeolian Islands on the 13th. I'm not the kind of guy who believes much in luck, but that number's fame should have a bit of meaning after all... I had five bodies with me, *ist D, LX, Fuji GS645, Yashica T5 and Ricoh GR1. The last one was the first to go: it stopped working probably after a couple of days. I had it mostly for real B&W shots, and used it a bit before noticing that it was not exactly working properly - it sounded like it was but in fact the shutter did not open...
