Thank you, Lluis.? You are correct, adapters give our older lenses a new 
life, and new processing tools make the images "shine".? I know you 
enjoy film processing, which you have perfected to an art.? I am more 
impatient.? I can't wait to examine the images when I load them into the 
computer, to see if I really have a few keepers.? Keep showing us your 
images. Preparing them will make your recovery time pass more quickly.
