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?
