This will be my first screw mount. While I'm waiting for it to arrive, I wanted to know if any of you have used this ancient, beautiful-looking hunk of metal and glass, and what you like/don't like about it. (I already know it doesn't have a built-in light meter, but I have a hand-held one, so that's not an issue.) I look forward to hearing from H1a owners! > > Jim Moniz > Actor, Photographer, and All Around Nice Guy... > www.jimmoniz.com > > -- > _______________________________________________ > Get your free Verizonmail at www.verizonmail.com >
