some DA lenses can cover the film size, and can be used on *ist at all modes, on mz-x series with P or Tv modes
Which ones do you mean? The Macro lenses cover full frame but are D-FA.

Only the DA series lenses, which have no aperture rings and only cover the reduced size sensor, will be exclusive to the digital SLRs. All the other lenses will work on older cameras. An exception is the FA-J series which, although full frame, do not have aperture rings. This makes them of limited use on most older film cameras.

Cheers, Gary, nicely done.

Congratulations Belinda B. What's the next challenge to be?

You're right of course, it is useful to have at least an approximate location. Some members give the detail, some don't, but it is optional so we'll never have 100%

As far as I know it's a standard feature of phpBB forums so there may well be a legal reason for it.

I have a feeling that it might need a letter of authorisation from a parent or guardian for an under 13 to register.

I'll check and get back to you.

Sadly, I have to agree.

If you love the viewfinder of the 645 then the 67 is another leap forwards.

I always wanted a 67, but in many ways the moment has passed.

probably as cheap to get another lens.

If an image is saved at more than the screen resolution (usually 72 or 96ppi) then the computer can only show it at the lower resolution anyway, so there is no point in a higher resolution.

I think having this image so large is counter-productive, but only because it can't be viewed as one image anyway without excessive scrolling.
