Quoting Stephen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > My Lover likes to know what I want for presents and I thought I would > like to try UV photography. So I put ' 58mm UV pass filter for UV photography > eg 18A ' on the list. > > She took the list to the camera shop closest to where she works and > got them to order some stuff in. They even made a joke about other things on > the list when she showed it to them. > > On christmas day when she handed me one of the parcels she said this > was the only one they had in stock. I opened it and it was a UV haze filter. > I thought I had made it plain enough that they could figure out I did not > want that. No problems take it back and get them to order what we want. > > Her first day back at work was yesterday and she went to the shop in > her lunch time. She was told that the 18A is the same filter but it costs > more than twice as much. So according to them an 18A cuts out UV light. > > Not only that their oldest expert, who is apparently also a > professional photographer, told her that he could tell from the list that I > was just converting to digital photography and I was making basic mistakes, > like he did. And the only filter I really wanted was a star filter. > Fortunately she is a sensible girl and will only accept what's on the list. > > There was no digital specific items on the list.
