It is a very nifty setup. >>Have you thought much about why the success rate was so much better with the R7/Telyt than with the EOS/L?<< I'll just summarize the lengthy post I sent you off line. With AF I took many shortcuts. I relied on AF and motor drive to get the shot, rather than my own sense of timing. I burned more film and got fewer good shots. When I used the R7, I knew that I might only have one shot at a play. I concentrated more. I had to anticipate. I was much more in tune with everything. David
