I think someone mixed sake and belgian style beer...:)
Glad that Japan did not disappoint you. Are you going to share pix?
Welcome back, happy to have you again here.

P.S. The biggest accomplishment while you were gone was what is now identified
as "Friday Syndrome" that passed without anyone getting burned...:)

Subject: [OM] OT Rambling thanks to Bois

Bois prompted me to stop lurking and stick my head above the sand. I
unsubscribed when I went to Japan and I have been busy at work. Thanks
again
to those who offered advise on Japan travel. My wife and I had a great
time. Japan was beautiful and I only wish the US was as clean and well
organized. I went to a couple used camera stores in Japan, but no
deals. I
did see a 28mm f2 for about $900. Nikon and German stuff seemed to be
most
popular. The only electronic equipment that really caught my eye was
Sony's
3 CCD High Def camcorder. The image quality was amazing on an HD TV.
I will post some pictures when I have the time. I wasn't thrilled with
my
shots. The sky was overcast and white, rain, shooting in midday, but
who
cares it was great, relaxing trip. I used some 160nc and 800 Portra
along
with slide film. The 800 Portra is really growing on me. Its
latitude,
color and speed are great. I really handles mixed light well. I
prefer my
Portra shots to 800 Press. Grain maybe an issue, but I haven't made
any
enlargements. I also shot some Natura 1600. It is also a nice film.
I
brought some Natura and Fortia SP home for give it a try.
What has happened in my absence? Bois got an A200? Walt got an E-1?
Hey
Walt, how about a test shot with the 500mm? And Chuck is in the market
for
a hiking stick (If you want a monopod, I really like my Giottos P-Pod).
Sounds like you are feeling better.
Its good to back.
