Hi
Does anyone on this mailing list use Picasa 2? I've been playing
around with it a bit, and it seems to suit my needs fairly well.
However, before investing more of my time labelling my pictures, I was
wondering if anyone has any experience of "migrating" Picasa installs
- e.g. moving to a new
etting desperate. My collection of Pentax bodies
has dwindled to just one working MX - over the years, three MESupers
have conked-out on me :( . Fortunately (more like sadly) I'm not
taking many photos right now - still adjusting to post-student /
married life

Can someone remind us of the URL? Thanks!

, matching set of cylinders.) So after a while, it becomes routine -
wouldn't think of putting fixer into the cylinder with the orange base, or developer
in the tall transparent one with the crack down the side. I suppose it's one of the
few advantages of using a low-budget darkroom.
o than the supposedly very expensive 24-90. I think I'd prefer the two lens
setup, at the expense of "build quality" (or whatever the 24-90 is supposed to offer
to justify its price tag), if the combined price is comparable.

the guys at Kodak, Ilford or wherever have done their job right.)
I've recently been trying slide film, partly because I don't have a darkroom at the
moment. I don't like slides so much because I prefer prints (the physical
presentation as opposed to the film), but I do like the c
extra power over the
GN30 flash. I guess it might be useful for fill purposes if you use the GN30 flash
off camera, or bounced.
It was a good question though. I wouldn't have asked myself this question, but now
that I've thought about it, it's quite an interesting answer!

e to get an A50/1.2 to
have a "real" piece of camera gear and A series coatings at the same time.
Is the A50/1.4 really optically that much better than the M50/1.4? I'm not sure if
I'd rather have a lens that feels better to use at the price of optical performance.

though I'm not sure if they exist.
Not sure where to buy the adapters if you are happy with optical degredation or loss
of infinity focus. I think I've seen them before, probably in B&H.
that defeat the purpose of the auto-rewind

#x27;ve heard people complain that they can't see all of the viewfinder in the MX, and I
know I have to press the camera hard into my face so that I can see all of it. But
why can't Pentax keep the same viewfinder magnification on the MX and just make the
rear window bigger? Am I just bein
;Action finder" reminds me of that door you open on the top
cover of a Yashicamat to give you a direct viewfinder. At least it's
distortion-free and, with relevance to this topic, has 1.0x
magnification. Pity you get parallax error...
Incidentally, the Leica 0-Series has such a viewfinde
27;t they always?
I suppose it's because I usually go without flash. As soon as I try
to fit in the Vivitar 283 as well, it's a whole different story.

27;t they call it the ZX-S?
I noticed this too. Nikon released the F100 as the F100 in the US,
instead of the usual N100/whatever.
I guess Nikon have a valid reason - it's trying to market the F100
using the image of the other F's (F, F2, F3, F4, F5).
