"Well someone around here is going to have to make a change... either you guys not using Leica like Ted get Leica's! Or Ted... you gotta go Canon or Nikon so we can have a better match of images!" Everyone moaned but me, as I wasn't going to change for nobody and they all knew it! ;-) Including the director, as he preferred the Leica look and I inevitably had more images in the multi projector, 32 projectors at times, presentations. However, it's a time like this with hundreds of slides on a light table from various manufacturers lenses for comparison that one can appreciate what Leica glass does. ted Ted Grant Photography Limited www.islandnet.com/~tedgrant - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
