Hi PHX,

Thanks for showing your fotos.
So far I only shot my suitcase with barcoded luggage tags late last night at
high ISO.
You gave me a good excuse to stop studying for the next hour.
Will take some pics for you.
Also I like the grid lines in live view for interior shots.
Later

JES from rainy AMS
