Thanks for sharing! Had not seen this before and wonder why it is not used for marketing as in the car industry? Or maybe I just have not noticed?

Is this what happens during the later stages of LBA?
Yes. I was glad to see that I wasn't the only one tempted despite already having one...
You definitely were not the only one....

Today is a day of personal celebration I have finally purchased a Pentax DA 12-24mm. This investment means that a K-5 is put on hold into the unknown future. I will have to stick with my K20D for the time being. Maybe I now get a chance to learn how to get the most out of the camera

Thank you all again for your good advice!

Congratulations Bjørn! It is a fantastic lens as you say, enjoy it!

Hmm. plenty to think about there.
Not sure the BW works for me, but hey! That's just my opinion! Thanks for doing it anyway

Yes, the crop doesn't do as much "damage" as I'd have expected. I should have tried instead of assuming!
No problem! you know, I am a B&W fan, or maybe nostalgic as that is what I started with..... So when I see a nice picture I always think how it would look in B&W

The main thing is that your shot is really very nice

Something exactly like that. The Nikon software only works up to Windows Vista, not 7, so I use the scanner on my Vista laptop. No doubt there is an alternative scanner software that will work on Windows 7.
You can use Vuescan instead of Nikon's own software. It works great.
