Hans,
After telling me I'm wrong _twice_, then eating
your words, you really ought to reconsider giving
me that 4Ti...what do the rest of you guys
think?<g>
Thanks for posting the table, and thanks Chris for
offering to copy it down for me. I guess I'd
better download the manual too. I was out
christmas shopping and just checked on another
T20, and found that manual is actually the right
hand switch position. When I got home I checked on
mine, and found that I don't get a full
discharge in Auto on the OM1...I wonder if this is
normal?

Found myself a christmas present too, some mint
(really) oly auto extension tubes (7 & 14, no
25:-() - not a bargain at A$150, but these don't
come up very often here. The boxes were very
battered, but the goods themselves looked as if
they had never been mounted to a body.
For any Aussies, other stuff in the window (Lemon
Grove cameras, Chatswood NSW):
Zuiko 35-70 f3.6 $199
Tokina ATX 35-80 F3.5-4.5 $210
Kiron 28-210 f4 macro $190
Tokina 70-210 f4 SD $170
The guy was happy to negotiate, he originally
wanted $195 for the extension tubes.
