VERY nice indeed. They are really lovely. BTW my Heliar 15mm/4.5 and finder arrived just now, departing from Mr Gandy in Ca on Saturday! Been snapping in the garden to make sure it works okay and boy, I instantly love it. Angle of view matches about 22.5 deg on 36X24 as you know, and that makes it fantastic reportage lens. Will email with some postings soon. Back to your regular programming :) -- 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 to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
