He has no interest in learning to use any camera; however, on this last trip there were far too many photos for me to keep changing lenses and cameras and getting them all. So I gave him an M9 with the 24/2.8 and set it on the 8's. I set the aperture for f/8 and told him to be sure the infinity mark was set at 8 so that more or less everything would be in focus (hyperfocul focusing). When there is plenty of light, it works fine. He didn't even have to look through the viewfinder, just press the shutter. http://www.pbase.com/image/155709400 Amazingly, he got some good photos. If you see any that I post that are taken with the M9 at f/8, Tom might have pressed the shutter. I also used it, though, so there is no way to know who shot what! I'll take credit (or blame) for all ;-) I just know that the ones I appear in, I did not shoot! Tina -- Tina Manley http:// <http://tina-manley.artistwebsites.com/>www.tinamanley.com
