K64  I suspected something of the sort - digital can't beat old pot 
soup, not yet.

800 mm : I had a look at the price tag today of the genuine 800 and said 
to myself " G..!"
Using the extender is what I did for some shots I had bought my 
Angenieux for - bokeh, shooting against the light source, and getting 
neither flare nor artefact - you've done this so well Ted.

I really enjoyed it - if you have more, keep them coming.

Amiti?s from ton ami from the other side of the Angenieux.
