-----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: Joe Wilensky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sendt: 14. januar 2005 22:09 Til: [email protected] Emne: RE: Gorgeous Honeywell Pentax ES black body That was as much of it as I could get to show up in the shot from my Optio 230. The ES viewfinder is fine and unobstructed -- I was just glad to have gotten most of it to show up in a photo I took by putting the digital camera lens right up to the eyepiece.
