Exactly! Then the "Sensory/iNtuitive" dimension must correlate with
feelings about automation -- the "sensory" type like to have lots of
sensors on their camera -- auto everything, while the "intuitive" type
prefer an OM-1 with a broken meter and the "sunny 16" rule!

(Notice how I slipped the requisite Olympus content into an otherwise
degenerating thread... :-)

Seriously, I think that would be an interesting experiment, Gary -- keep us
posted! I'm planning a class this fall -- maybe I'll slip the MBPI test
into the syllabus...

(I'm an INTP, but I don't think it shows in my pictures.)
