Now *here's* an idea for a K-01 accessory add-on for those who want to go really retro: An attachment that fits onto the rear LCD with a 45-degree mirror that reflects the LCD image up onto a horizontal ground glass screen! You'd get that TLR-style reversed image while framing shots with the camera at waist level! If any of you actually makes this device I want a share of the profits... -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.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.
