Dan, It surprises people when they see my laptop. I have the Russian keyboard layout printed below the mouse buttons. I have used it on occasion but not often enough. Though I promise to brush up on it for the next trip.
I thought about the 43, but there were enough mixed reviews I thought I would hold out. I just use the 50/1.2 when needed. But it is not that often. I usually carry the 31 and 77. Now the 24/2 is added in the mix. Gee thanks for the thought about a Limited lens on a different LX. Hmmm, with two snake-skinned LX and three regular ones maybe it is time to find another skin for one :') Actually, I am thinking about holding out with lens purchases until the DSLR. That and the screwmount cameras that I should bet CLA'd. The DSLR would work well for me. Actually I am thinking about Ironman Florida this weekend. I will have my Pentax gear with me for the occasional shot, but I will try to see about getting to use the D1X or D1H for a while. Finally trying to catch up with the list, Cesar Panama City, Florida -- -----Original Message----- -- From: Dan Scott [mailto:daniel559@;directvinternet.com] -- Sent: Monday, November 04, 2002 11:41 PM -- -- -- On Monday, November 4, 2002, at 10:33 PM, Cesar Matamoros II wrote: -- -- > Dan, -- > -- > Maybe next time I am out there I can bring my Russian-English -- > dictionary and -- > translate the manual for you.
