    Gerald, looking like alot of fun. I keep saying I'm going to get out my A1, 20 years newer than your vintage zeiss/Ercona, but I sure would enjoy it also.

    Those shots are pretty darn good!thumb.gif

    thanks for the compliment! It is great fun using these. What is your A1? Is that a Cannon or a medium format?
