Cameron Photo is a dangerous place: New gear priced like secondhand gear in
North America: I really hated to leave without my $845 90 Elmar-M!! Across
the street, I leafed through a book called, I think The Ecology of Hong
Kong, containing a number of fine nature photos--far from the stereotypical
view one gets of the region. Got the impression that many of the photos were
taken on Lantau Island, of which I had a brief glimpse before being
deposited at the gargantuan airport there.
