Thanks Ken and Chris. I would agree with Ken that the E-1 does a very 
good shot of capturing a a scene without blowing highlights, 
particularly skies.

Regarding a real digital camera, I did pick up a 20D the other day to 
replace an aging D60, and I will say that it is a really sweet 
camera. I used it for Pit and Paddock shots during the recent US 
MotoGP race at Laguna...very nice for that. It's not a replacement 
for a 1D series camera for sports, but it's wonderful as an 
all-around camera, and small and light, too!

It's almost as impressive as the C*n*n 500/4 L IS, which is a jewel of  a lens.

Andrew Fildes, if you're reading this, thank you so much for the 
MotoGP stamps, I literally just received the letter you sent some 
time ago a few days ago. It was sitting at the house of the person I 
shoot with from time to time after coming to the D&W Images P. O. 
Box. Unfortunately, it took me a while to get together with him to 
receive the letter.

Cheers,
Stephen.
