Yeah, yeah ... :) I had the family breathing down my neck and that was a naked scan ... not even resizing. I just scanned for the web. I've put up some more (various angles etc): http://gallery.leica-users.org/album40 I tried another one now without as _much_ noise :) Here's what it looks like stopped down a bit (5.6 or 8, I think): http://gallery.leica-users.org/album40/04v35_0009 If you check out the lower righthand corner, you can see the level of distortion (not bad, all things considering): http://gallery.leica-users.org/album40/04v35_0007 Some lines: http://gallery.leica-users.org/album40/04v35_0012 (Notice how empty the streets are? ...
