Lars,
USE them? What the hell are you suggesting, we USE them? What
kind of troublemaker are you, anyway? You mean we have to stop debating how
many versions of lens "X" were made before they added: (fill in one choice)
green, pink, yellow, orange brown or purple to the multicoating! And where
are we now on the subject of an Oly "contest"? THAT thing should have more
rules than Catholic School by now! And all of you! Yes ALL of you- stop
attaching lasers and various gizmos to your lenses to test for the dreaded
200/4 vibration. If the good Dr. Maitani had intended your lens to have a
laser on it, HE would have offered one in the Acessory Group. Is one there?
NO! And who cares what composite substance their tripod legs are made of?!
Your precious Olympuses are meant to be HELD. Take them off that tripod right
now! How cold! How impersonal! Shame on you! Go out and actually hold your
camera, talk to it, and SHOOT SOME FILM IN THE REAL WORLD before you bemoan
mirror shake, or lockup, or mis-alignment, or whatever you are wringing your
hands over _today_!
Doris, are you there? Make them stop, they'll listen to you! Doris? Doris?
Does anyone else's brain hurt after reading the posts over the past
two weeks?
