RE: Photokina - a few pictures

Actually Karen, a lot of cameras have a seperate button for AE lock. What's
nice about that is that you can keep the lock over several exposures where
you cannot with the shutter release version.  I'm thinking of many of the
Nikon's and other SLR's. Actually, IF the button is in a handy place, than
I'd prefer that to the shutter release version, though it is yet another
button on the camera.

On the R2A/R3A, it's the AE-lock. I dunno why Cosina couldn't make
holding down the shutterrelease halfway the AE like every other
camera in the world.
