I agree with you, Pieter. Despite my earlier advice to Jasmine about
flashes, when I got back into photography several years ago, after my
hiatus, I didn't use a flash for about 2 years. Not out of choice, just
because I didn't have one. It did force me to learn to use availa

You would now *have* infinity focus because the lens would be seated
properly.
Going the other way is no problem, i.e. putting a SMC Tak on a Fujica body -
at least it works for me, except that the Fujicas feel like garbage compared
to a Spottie or Rolleiflex body.

Holy crap, Herb,
That makes all the difference in the world! It's not that the yellows are
brighter or more vibrant, but that I can see many more yellow tones in the
animal. It's kind of like more contrasty, but not really. Just much more
yellow information in there, if you know what I mean.

Now that I have the *ist D and installed the try-out version of BB, it

Nup! I still like gaggle. If one's a stickler for that little bit of
cadence, how bout a photogaggle of photographers? But then again, just
'photogaggle' would suffice wouldn't it? I think phalanx sounds too
anatomical and flock sounds too Heidi.. Hmm.. a farm of photographers.
No no! Gaggle!

Good call. . . If you've ever been where a gaggle of geese figured you
