I didn't know they came with triggers too. Does it fire a bullet through the lens like that spy camera I saw somewhere or other?

Anyone remember this thread?

Thanks for the information.

Best wishes, Kris.

Prices might help your sale, and the zoom is presumably the 75-150 f/4? And is the 28mm the f/2.8 version (not the f/2 or f/3.5)?

Best wishes, Kris.

I like the alternative view of the first one. I might be tempted to cheat, however, and move the moon into the more open section of the photograph towards the top left... Don't tell the PS police...

Good old Kodachrome 25... amazing stuff. I am still working my way through my last few rolls of K64. Ansel Adam's, in his autobiography, notes how his early ektachromes and kodacolors had all faded but his kodachrome's were fine. I cannot image what the quality of a K25 5x4" would be like.

K.

... is this battery grip for?

Many thanks! Kris.

Do you think I might be able to fly home on Friday?

I have had three photos rejected in the last few days, and two accepted. The rejects were an architectural shot, a derelict factory shot and a abstract of a piece of machinery. The accepted ones were both... you guessed it... sunsets!

There is definitely a flavour of shots that are in favour.

I shall try and find out more about the publisher and their intentions.

I have had many photographs published as illustrations and so my ego doesn't need massaging in that regard. Knowing a fair bit about the publishing world, even though this book is intended for educational purposes it will still be sold for a profit. The fact that it is aimed at schools doesn't make it a charitable production: publishers publish for one reason and one reason only, to make money. My feeling was that if photo magazines pay about 25 pounds for a photograph, then that is about what I should charge. Not enough to break the budget of a low-cost production but enough to make a point.

Best wishes, Kris.
