Detlef,

Absolutely correct if that is the reason for buying it. However I bought mine to
use as a working tool of my trade.

Simply because it allows me to shoot under severe light conditions where it
wouldn't be possible otherwise without using a flash!

And quite frankly it has allowed me photo opportunities I would not have
otherwise had.
