I was coaching at a kid's soccer practice and simultaneously taking a few action pictures with a newly purchased (pawn shop) Robot Star. My assistant coach announced that he and his girlfriend had just decided to get married and invited me and a couple of the other guys to join them at a local pub for a celebration. Any "Oh yes, since you have a camera with you, would you mind taking a few pictures to send to her Mum in Australia?' The pictures came out fine. The square negative really helps. Larry Z
