I was thinking you might enjoy seeing what the KatzEye does. I was
disappointed that it didn't work very well with legacy lenses and then
realized that that body was probably pretty useless when I lent it to
you because of the screen. Sorry about that.
Heh, I knew there was something different about the split-image, but I
didn't register it as a direction change. That probably means it was
developed for a Canikon and adapted later to Olympus.
I hadn't seen your shots of the gulls. Wonderful work!
