My Elan IIe's ECF is very reliable, I think results vary from individual, or
one camera body to another.
The Elan 7e has a shiny (almost slippery) black finish. I liked the matte
finish of the IIe, although I would agree black is a preferred color.
The 7e is too small to be a real camera.

shoot Fuji Press 800 at 1600 or 3200. Then presumably you could shoot in

Hi,
I'd just like to publicly thank Henry Posner for the excellent service
provided by B&H Photo-Video to myself recently on my purchase of an
EF 70-200 F/2.8L lens.
As promised, price matched with Camera World and delivered without fuss.
Thoroughly recommended.
Cheers!
Paul.

Hi all -
Me again! ;-) I understand (I think) that a non-optical extension

makes the following: an EF-12; EF25; and and a Variable EF15-25
extension tube.

Sorry, just a quick history question - when did the change from
ASA/DIN to ISO film rating happen? Are we all using the same one now?
I guess it's obvious, but ISO is the same as the old ASA, right? and
ISO I'm guessing is something like "International Standards Org."?
