Ken,
Given the chores of financial transactions and moving efforts that you have
on your plate at this time, I appreciate any time you can spend on this
list. Thanks for the complimentary words. Though I had tried the lens
earlier and was disappointed by the difficulties in focusing it on the
E-510, I had not given it a fair trial on the E-1. Once I concentrated on
zone focusing, and started working with the images, I realized that it was,
for me, a winning combination. I'm happy that you see the same things that
I saw.
