One other question on this.Does slide film
only come in the slow ASA speeds like 50-100
or do they get into the 200-400 range.
You can get fast slide film. Go with Fuji Sensia 400 or Provia 400F. Avoid
Ektachrome 400 at all costs.

Actually, you're the first. Not that much traffic in the middle of the day,
I suppose so it's still available if you want it.

Comedian and Jazz clarinetist. In fact, he skipped the Academy Awards ceremony
when he won his first Oscar (for Annie Hall) and played a gig with his band
instead.

kind of wish I'd kept it now as there are
times when the size of the FA*24/2.0 is inconvenient.

bought a lens via eBay to use
for parts. It was advertised as having fungus so it went real cheap. When
I disassembled it I found that the fungus wiped off with one pass of a
lens cleaning tissue: it was just dust.
