So I'd be reluctant to get into arguments that suggest control isn't important. --Adam Bridge - ----------------------------------------- How can we interpret a scene if we don't have the means to do it to the ultimate degree possible. You get that with a fully adjustable first rate instrument like the mechanical Ms. However, you can compose without interpreting. That's done by photo-journalists all the time, as well as field photographers like Bresson. And that form can be done with any decent camera. We interpret with our minds through technique. We compose quickly with our educated reflexes and a camera either preset or automatic to some degree. Ladies and Gentlemen, make your choice. There is no stigma either way. br - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
