I was lucky since it seemed to pass by everyone on the local forum. The guy was harder to get a hold of than most but it paid off. Too dark for Ducks right now so I'll update tomorrow.

More info | Oct 11, 2008 02:22 | #4 I tried out a MK II last month but couldn't bring myself to walk away with it. Mostly the manual focus since I've got hot dog fingers. It's in great shape for an antique so I'm happy so far. Sure is a noisy little critter though, it sounds like a Pixar character. Rob

The colour and contrast straight out of the camera are very good. I just have to get used to the paper thin DOF.  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size. Rob
