Now John, you obviously haven't tried a Bronica S2A - apart from the noise
which starts when you press the shutter release (which is the loudest of
any camera I have used), it also tries to leap off the tripod and needs a
lot of restraint which some people like myself see as a challenge......

I always start off by poking it with a stick with the camera bag half-open.
If it's in a bad mood you can then zip it shut pretty quickly and take the
OM2S instead....

No one gets me for off topic pos..........etc etc


All the best,
