Higher flash synch speed is top of my list : I was SO disappointed when Pentax brought out the LX with 1/75th flash synch and even my ME Supers had 1/125th yet the LX was supposed to be a more professional camera ! The Nikon FE2 had 1/250th for example.

I just wish you had made these uploads SMALLER as I had to move the screen around to look at them ( well at least the 'landscape format' ones were far too wide )

I've done lots of B/W film processing for a member of ePHOTOzine: he would send me the films with negative sheets and a return post envelope ( and a CHEQUE ) and I charged him £1-50 for processing film and a B/W contact sheet. He used a lot of Kodak T-max 100; I did it in Crawley's FX37 formula. Let me know if you want my service - plenty of time on my hands and loads of chemicals to use up !

Daniel : No, it's the Cancer Charity shop back room : I was there to photograph John Baron MP acting as a 'Volunteer' for the day on a scheme where MP's (Members of Parliament) do some work in the Community ! One of the pics I took was used front page on the Brentwood & Billercay Recorder. ( NOT the most 'creative' pic as usual - Editor chooses a boring one )

Here's a pic of DIGITAL PENTAX PETE on a press job in Billercay taken by the Chief Photographer of the Yellow Advertiser newspaper on his NIKON D2X---maybe that's why it's not sharp all over----he should have used a PENTAX !!!!!!!!!

Yes : it's dark on my Time computer too; couldn't see the red writing at first.

They quaffed plenty before going on ! The one of the 'Well-Built' lady clog dancers with their legs up made page 3 of Friday's 'Recorder' newspaper.

The ones in RED with the well-built Ladies are the Crouch Vale Clogs & Morris---- Here is a shot of one of the Rumford Morris showing his 'Little Willy' ( NO I'm NOT being controversial - it's the 'Smallest Morris Dancer in the World')

Nothing wrong as the colour of the rust is correct so you are just having us on !

I first saw the Metallic paper in the Philppines at least three years ago at a meeting of Cebu Images Camera Club; they seem to get things there quicker than we get them in the UK ! I tried to get cut sheets of it to use it in my Nova 16x12" processor with RA4 chemicals but Kodak will not sell it in cut sheets, only expensive rolls for machines.
