Bernard.... You have middle-grey hands which planet
you from!

Caucasian skin (unless heavily sunburnt) is 1 to 2 stops
lighter than mid-grey. It's not very reliable.... bits
can be shiny

An Ebay search should also bring up photos.

Fixed That was a very extreme example as well probably maximum black against an overexposed highlight.
From what I've seen of it the 77mm LTD suffers badly from PF.

leave it on for about an hour.

Rumour sites claim Sony have abandoned Alpha mount APS-C
and will concentrate on full frame, but not until 2014.

All the people clamouring for Pentax full frame should note
that mint SH Sony A900's go for about £850 which is a massive
loss from new I'll wait until the price of a Pentax
FF drops to £850
