Heck, you think you have problems remembering? I was out with a "new" 'blad 
taking macros of gorgeous starfish, kelp, etc. Every shot a wall-hanger no 
doubt. I was just too crazy involved/lazy to put my glasses on; I thought 
the orange letter on lens the shutter speed dial was "B".
It wasn't; it was "F" (for focal plane shutter; keeps the leaf diaphragm in 
the lens open all the time).
Fortunately I'm meshugana enough that I just had a wonderful time thinking 
of what I saw through the viewfinder; unfortunately no one else will ever 
see it though...

Well Alastair, maybe I am old enough for that back!
;-)

BTW, do you have a manual for the 205? They are available online at:

Thanks Jim, I'm already having great fun. Trying to remember how to use
the exposure system on the camera is my major problem at the moment ;-) I
settled for using the PME prism average meter, and "bracketing"
