Here they are: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/400Telyt/Boywave.jpg.html http://tinyurl.com/ydppk3q http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/400Telyt/CurlfollowW.jpg.html http://tinyurl.com/yjlkug6 http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/400Telyt/BlondSurfw.jpg.html http://tinyurl.com/ydozg54 http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/400Telyt/BlueGirlw.jpg.html http://tinyurl.com/yfcz5wu My focus score rate with the sliding action of the 400 Telyt was about as good as the AF panasonic zoom I used the day before. I do like the way the Telyt draws the image - although the outer corners can be quite soft. All of these were taken with the Telyt on the D700 using a monopod. They have been cropped. I was really impressed with the young surfers - dancing along the waves with great ?lan and confidence. I did notice that boys outnumbered girls about 100 to 1. Only the girl in Blue was there for the afternoon. Do enjoy! C & C welcome as always. Cheers Howard
