Yamaha's are certainly crisp and contrasty enough, but I tend to find their bokeh a bit harsh, probably more suited to Nikons. Kawai would probably go well with a Canon kit. Schimmels are rather warm and smooth, probably pair up with an M2 and classic 35/2. Maybe a Steinway for a M6TTL and 35/1.4 asph. Does Bosendorfer make an upright? Just wait til the kids are in Kindergaten, its amazing how resourceful they become. You'll have to move up to a concert grand, preferably one with a heavy lid!

While there I discovered the best camera carrier when dealing with children. An upright piano! It is tall enough that little fingers cannot get to the gear. It is heavy enough that the little blighters cannot knock it over. Even better, it has wheels so you can position it where ever you want. They are always so beat up that no one would steal it. What more could one ask? :-) John Collier - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
