I've only had one lense since I bought my SF-10 in 2000: an F 35-70/3.5-4.5. I
ordered an M 75-150/4 from Adorama and it showed up last week. I was getting rather

Allow me to get even further off topic. I recently finished Virtual Light by William
Gibson, published in 1993. There was a character in that book; a courier named Hans
Blix. Sound familiar? Had anyone here heard of the UN weapons inspector a decade
ago? It seems like quite a coincidence.
Not only is he using Flash; he's got everything in a pop-up window. If you have

I tried getting a roll of film developed straight to a CD for the first time
yesterday. I forget the brand name, but it wasn't a Kodak PhotoCD. The
files on the CD were .jpg images, approximately 1480x1035, 24-bit color. I
was a bit disappointed because that resolution doesn't allow for much
