To respond to some comments, in no particular order: I am taking 2 M bodies and 2 Nikon bodies. Also, two tripods. The Ms will each have a 35mm (one Summicron, the other the Summilux). If I shoot from the roof, I will use the Nikon and the 24-120 zoom. I would prefer to use the Leica. I may be able get a platform to stand on if needed. I can't lie about who I shoot for since my daughter is in the group. BTW, this is a group shot. The first words out of mu mouth when my wife told me about it was "This would be a great time to have a medium formt camera". Oh well. I am going to talk to my local photo lab and see what I can work out with the owner. I might even be able to borrow some equipment from him. He is an ok guy. As far as being the first step towards making money. I don't know. Don't think I'm ready for that, but I wouldn't rule it out. After my last encounter with stupid photographer tricks, I plan on being very prepared. I am shooting pictures for the high school drama club tomorrow night along with another dad. They are having a complete run thru and we are shooting photos to be used as promo shots in the lobby of the auditorium. Already got the cameras loaded and ready to go. I got at least two of everthing including lightmeters in case I whip out the M2! Thanks again. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
