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.
