Terry and Tracey, et al,

Oops -- So John Shaw does say on page 120
of the book that I have that the prime
lens on the camera is the one that should
be stopped down.  This would be more 
convenient; however Alfred Blaker's earlier
Field Photography book recommends stopping
down the reversed lens and not the prime lens.

Both of the photographers, it seems to me,
were using Nikon gear.  Perhaps there is
some difference with Zuiko lenses?

So, far I think the reversed retrofocus zoom
35-70 will give better working distance and
a choice of magnifications.
