Re: [pinhole-discussion] re: paper negative
That was my experience, no logo on the final print. When replying to such a long long thread, please delete the 3262354 irrelevant messages, yahoo sigs, and the tags that the list puts from your post. Just leave the one that you are specifically replying to. I have scrolled through many of the messages of this thread, and have not been able to figure out what has been added, as it is hidden among all the previous replies.

RE: [pinhole-discussion] re: paper negative
The logo on Kodak paper makes it unsuitable for using as a negative, in my experience, which is to bad because the paper is nice and I would love to suppport an American company.

Re: [pinhole-discussion] Cannon A-1 Pinhole
I think the perhaps unusual thing about the OM-2 is that it ALWAYS does the off-the-film thing, adjusting exposure during the exposure if the light changes. Colin --- Derek Clarke dere...@cix.co.uk wrote: Canon use off-the-film flash metering in TTL mode. These days they offer E-TTL which use preflash and the main body meter sensors, but for every body but a digital one you can set the flash to TTL mode manually. __ Do You Yahoo!?
