But just for the odd question or two, the friendly LUG has been accommodating!! But any complete beginner should at least read up on the basics of photography. Just for a show of suggestions, what excellent reading would the LUG recommend for a newbie (a) basics and (b) advanced technic the Leica way)?? I'm sure your local library might carry some titles!

And with the back-to-the-basics movements going on all around, this seems a natural. What say you, amateurs and newbies? Would you pay someone (not me! I'm too busy!) to teach you how to utilize bokeh? - - -- Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch He, who will not reason, is a bigot; he, who cannot, is a fool; and he, who dares not, is a slave.
