Which makes lots of sense. I may be traumatized by trying to do that was an LX2, I don't know; I just found that a)there was no low-light capability to speak of, so many inside shots were impractical, and b)most of the things I wanted snapshots of were too far away. This is doubtless much more of a PEBKAC problem than a camera problem as such. -- Graydon -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
