Never, never a true artist is produced by the kind of tools he uses. These may improve his work, make it easier or more comfortable but never improve his soul, his touch of genius. Perfectionism in tools does nor change the final output, although may help the way for getting it sooner. More gear I get more sceptical I'm about its relevance. Mediocrity with expensive tools remain mediocrity. Felix - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
