I certainly miss the simplicity of the OM (analogue) days. Noticing what I
wrote earlier,I have to admit I slightly missed the focus with the 100 on a
couple of occasions. I suspect the DOF is not too deep at F2.8 or F4, though
technique was probably the root cause.. More practice needed obviously.

Those have come out well, Martin. For some reason the inside shot with the Oly
cap lying on the book is quite evocative for me. Perhaps I miss OM days . . .
