Ah, well, one seldoms finds one expert in any field who has any respect for
another. Or any photographer who likes any photography writer for purely
objective reasons. The field of photography is rife with trifling over
numbers, data, statistics, damned lies and my opinions.
I'd rather take photographs.

Agreed. No offence Lex, but Roger Hicks is not my idea of the most
fastidious of testers. I've read his material, and while I can't fault his
enthusiasm, technical accuracy isn't always uppermost in his agenda. Not
that he's bad, just that he's not that good.
