Subers dear chap. The LX wink. Well, let's just say....that it's the very quiet satisfaction you get with owning and using the LX by...how can I put this...being at peace with yourself and the world around you..it's a sort of...'ahhhhhhhh' feeling, a deep relaxation that means you know you are now photographically equipped to deal with anything and everything. It's a 'knowing wink' to everyone else that you are among the privileged few.....like.....peace, man..... ;-) -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
