Here is the rest: Thanks for the comment, Pascal. Actually I have only met two people who have done *any* aerial photography and talked to one other on the phone recently. So finding one with an R-8 could be difficult! Much less with a Vario-Apo-Elmarit!! Maybe if you send me the whole kit, I can try it out. . . I think a zoom lens would be very practical for aerial photography that is scenic in nature. I already caught myself once leaning farther back in the helicopter to get a wider view with my M6. It didn't affect things much in the frame. So far I have resisted the temptation to lean too far forward. So a zoom would be great in the air to crop the scene for best fit. Regards, Gary Todoroff
