Hi, William,

I'm a Canadian living in Canada (Toronto).  What part(s) of Canada are you 
from?

I'm pretty much a Pentax guy (Spotmatics, MX, LX) with an old Yashica Mat 
(just for fun), and a Leica CL/40mm Summicron C (that's all the Leica I can 
afford, but I love it dearly).

Sounds like you'll enjoy yourself here.  I look forward to getting to know 
you better.

cheers,
frank

Hello everyone,

I`ve tried posting about myself last friday when I saw a couple of you do 
so and it has occured to me that it would be nice that I make a little 
introduction about myself.  However for some strange reason it didn`t go 
through and so here I go agian.

My name is William Robert and I`m from Canada now living in Hong Kong.  I`m 
into photojournalism and documentary photography.  Presently I`m working on 
a book about life here in Hong Kong and I have a long ways to go before I 
finish.  I`m not a technological wizard in photography but I know enough to 
get what is needed done.

Gear wise I use medium format stuff like the Pentax 645N system and Rollei 
system.  For 35mm slr I use pentax LX`s through to MZS`s etc and an 
assortment of lenses.  I also use a Canon EOS system when I need autofocus 
because Pentax autofocus just doesn`t cut it for me.  When I`m using 
rangefinders I use a Leica M system.

I want to thank you all for having me and for providing a place to share.

William R.

Nice one William. I've always wanted to see HK, maybe I will one day. Let
