I forget who all has M9s. I love Tri-X. The actual film. Interestingly of my three digital cameras (Panasonic FZ28 18x zoom, Panasonic G1 and Nikon D40x) the one with most Tri-X-looking B+W mode is the FZ28 a point and shoot. It's a great camera by the way, and uses one of their Leica branded lenses a Vario Elmarit 2.8-4.4/4.8 - 86.4 ASPH... with a 1:5.5 or so crop ratio that's roughly 28 - 450 point something or other to 70mm or so, which translates to the whopping 27mm to 425 or soemthing in 35mm crop equivalents.... It's a little-sung but outstanding camera, sharp, beautiful color renditions, fast, etc. I'm old. My girlfriend ain't. She produced baby. I lost my license after the first three... Being in your 50s with a baby is kind of fun though. On Mon, Mar 22, 2010 at 1:36 AM, Richard Man <richard at imagecraft.com> wrote: > Afro-Brazilian martial arts / dance / sing / drum thing.
