Might as well use AF if there's the case - saves the trouble of even turning the focusing ring :) boon hwee - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Hemenway" <Jim@hemenway.com> To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Sent: Thursday, May 29, 2003 10:04 AM Subject: Re: [Leica] Digital back for Leica R8/R9 > Mehrdad: > > Is there no focus confirmation when using R glass with the 10d?

And it is very close in everything to it's big brother 1ds except the resolution. Pair it with the capture one software and u got a winner. There are no split focusing screens available for the 10d and this makes hard to use with the r lenses > > > > --------------------------------------------------- > > regards, mehrdad > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us] On Behalf Of George Lottermoser > > Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2003 1:44 PM > > To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > > Subject: Re: [Leica] Digital back for Leica R8/R9 > > > > simon@sclamb.com (Simon Lamb)5/28/03 > > > > >tonal quality etc. You may want to reply to that question off-list. > > > > Please keep this thread on-list as many of us are considering the possibility of a Canon D body for use with our R glass I believe it has on-topic merit. > > > > thanks > > > > Fond regards, > > > > G e o r g e L o t t e r m o s e r, imagist > > > > <,>Peace<,> <,>Harmony<,> <,>Stewardship<,> > > > > Presenting effective messages in beautiful ways > > since 1975 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > > web <www.imagist.com> > > eMail george@imagist.com > > voice 262 241 9375 > > fax 262 241 9398 > > Lotter Moser & Associates > > 10050 N Port Washington Rd - Mequon, WI 53092 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > > -- > > To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html > > > > -- > > To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html > -- > To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
