I confess, Chris, when I read your first sentence I stopped in my tracks.
"E-1"? He never told us about that!
So congratulations, you sound as happy as the proverbial pig.
Now, tell us all about the educational discount before our offspring are
finished with their education. More to the point, does your establishment
accept applications after the start of the academic year? I would only be
interested in ground school. Would I have to write up many assignments?

Subject: [OM] FL flashes and the E-1; was which macro flash?
Yes, I have ordered an FL-36 for my new E-1. I tried a T32 on it to capture
some of the antics of our students at the Squadron's Christmas Revue and
most of them were sexily blurred. Sexy blurring pales rather though after a
while ;-).
To our UK List members: I bought the E-1 for "half price". That is half of
the MSRP of £1400 ? £699. It is an educational discount which I could have
got my son to claim, but to which I am entitled as a member of an
educational establishment. This is with the 14-54 lens as well ... :-)))
I know that that is still loads of dosh, and I had to sell my Bronica
RF645 to finance the deal, but it is a fair old discount.
Now all I have to do is get out and take some decent photos...
Chris
