 Yes, it's pretty scary how far I can enlarge things before it gets sketchy
-- _very_ handy for fixing composition mistakes in the darkroom.
 
 (that said, I've just shot a roll of slide film, because the guy threw it
in with the camera -- I'm not really sure what I'll do with the end result,
though -- I don't have a 35mm projector, and can you even get 6x6
projectors? Still, the results should be pretty if nothing else.)
