Hi, all.
I'd like to thank you all for the warm welcome!

It was on 2006. I'll have to dig into the hundreds of boxes of slides, but
i'll show an evidence of that ZA-meeting, I promise!

Welcome back, Carlos. I'm trying to remember whether my Crown Graphic went

I don't thimk so, I purchased it from an yaBe seller, plus lenses (Angulon
90/6.8, Optar 135/4.7, Symmar-S 210/5.6) and other accessories from several
sources. Now I'm trying it with Polaroid film -- it feels SO convenient!

Welcome back! In case you haven't noticed, the list likes as many

Well, I'll try not to deceive you ;-)

I hope so, but be warned that most of the Señoritas in my "files" are of
foreign origin -- due to inmigration, this is a rather cosmopolite area!

It does the job for me. I remember your posts about the upgrade, and I'm
sure I downloaded it on the old computer... but hadn't been brave enough to
install it :-( Seems I can live without it, though.
But I admit I have my eye on the Micro-Four-Thirds system... In fact, IMHO
the SLR concept has its drawbacks, but was "necessary" with film cameras
becuase it was the only way to preview the results -- kind of "pre-chimp".
But with a digital sensor, I see no point for the extra bulk, weight, noise,
vibration, mount-sensor distance (*bad* for wides!) and, worse for me, the
viewfinder goes "blind" during the real exposure -- I do a lot of
available-light pics with longish exposures.
In fact, one of the selling points of the OM system at its birth, was the
operation closer to that of a rangefinder system, instead of contemporary
(bulky!) SLRs...
Cheers,
