I like "Mummy's in there" but for the rest your other postings have generally been more interesting. (I'm still shuddering after the chip shop one and am dieting as a result...)

It was a once in a lifetime chance. Less impulse, and more grab it when you can and sort out the consequences afterwards!

And people have accused me of carrying too much kit... Gets heavy though!
How are the same faults that were mentioned in the original sale? Are you going to get the lens serviced?
Hope to be at Focus too this year, probably on the Monday too.

Never mind AF, I just wish that I could turn off the stupid diopter adjustment on the viewfinders. I wear contact lenses and getting it back to the 'middle' setting after knocking it accidentally is a real pain.
Funny that, I find it wonderful I can adjust the viewfinder so that I don't have to wear my glasses! Even my FED2 has viewfinder adjustment even though it is a rangefinder!

Lightroom doesn't like huge catalogues as I discovered by trying to have my entire image collection in one... If you can think of some logical way of splitting the catalogues up without messing up your searching needs then it is worth it.
Personally, I love Lightroom and do 95% of my editing in it.

For the last year or so I have been using up my remaining stocks of Kodachrome 64. I had always used slide film for colour images because a number of them would always be for lecture purposes, and because I was never impressed with the odd roll of print film I had used.
Now, Kodachrome is no more and all my lectures use powerpoint leaving me free to try different films and see which one I like. I decided to try out the relatively new Kodak Ektar 100. My first impressions are very positive. Here are a few frames from my first roll shot using my MX and variety of Pentax manual prime lenses, commercial dev and scan.
1. Azalea Park, Summerville, South Carolina.
2. Fountain, Central Park, New York.
3. Frozen reservoir, Central Park, New York.
4. Sunset, Cental Park, New York.
5. Twilight in Hertfordshire
Best wishes, Kris.

Excuse the dumb question, can't you print from Lightroom 3?
