Hi yall,
I've been lurking here for about a year and I must say that the amount
of information gleened from this list in that time far exceeds what I've
taught myself in the last 20 years. But its not just the photographic
and Oly related subjects that I've benefitted from but also the human
element that is found on this list. I always admired my teachers that
could satisfy my need for knowledge and inject humor into the lesson at
the same time and that's the way I feel about this list.
Raggitty Ann, bluegrass is not the only weed associated with Kentucky.
Perhaps you should indulge in this fine state's other herbal offering
and learn to kickback a little. Life is short and the time it takes to
press the DEL key is even shorter.
Oly content: I'll be heading to Idaho in a month or so for a 10 day Elk
hunting trip and need advice on a light travel kit. Considering that
I'll be climbing up and down mountains all day with my bow and arrows
and backpack, lightweight is essential. That being the case, here's what
I have to work with:
OM4-T
OM2n
24 f2.8
50 f1.4
100 f2.8
135 f2.8
Viv Ser-1 70-210 f3.5-f4.5 (62mm filter)
Tokina 300 f2.8
Sigma 400 f5.6
I also have 2 Kiron zooms that are NIB that I've never used I think they
are 80-200 f3.5-f4.5 and the other one is f4. They are a little lighter
than the Viv Ser-1 but I'm clueless on the optical qualities.
So far I'm leaning on the 4-T, 24 and 50. The 300 2.8 is out, but I
would like to take one lens that is a little longer.
Any film advice out there? I shoot alot of K64 but a tripod is out of
the question on this trip and most on my shoots will probably be early
a.m. and afternoon shots,not necessarily wildlife but just general
mountain scenes.
Thanks in advance
mike m.
