[Leica] IMG: Breakfast Time

[Jim Nichols]

Hi Philippe,

Perhaps I need to investigate remote triggering, provided my curious 
squirrels don't decide to climb the tripod.  All of my cameras normally 
power down after an idle period.  I would need to find out if this can 
be turned off, or if a remote device will wake up the camera.

It's certainly food for thought.  Thanks for the suggestion.

The Leica-R 90mm would be a good lens for this purpose.
