That's one nice thing about the Yashica Mat. It has a grid on the screen to aid in getting horizontals and verticals correct. Bill > > For 35mm I usually do what you just said. When I'm handholding I am > > shocking at getting unstraight horizons. > > My problem with the 75mm is not so much h

I've also noticed that it's harder to judge the horizonals and verticals. A grid would be an excellent solution. Frequently, when using a tripod, I tilt down to get the horizon at the top of the frame just to check position before tilting back up to my frame and shooting. Paul Aaron Reynolds wrot

Would you stop already! :) When I hit the $200 Million Lotto tonight I`m going to get a few of those 67II`s. In the 6X7 detail pic there is something that looks like a fire at the bottom of the right tank, any idea what it is? The detail achieved with the big neg is amazing! Steve Larson Redondo
