Subject: [LRFlex] daybreak... images 20D and R80mm
Arizona sunrise...my wife called me, I ran outside in my bathrobe, in
hand a Canon 20D with a R 'lux 80mm 1.4, to capture a few images...

Hi Steve,
4 more reasons I have to move to Arizona! Very nice. Seems patching Leica
glass and 20D together works quite successfully.
On New Years Day I didn't have the sun rise but did shoot a bunch of crazy
people doing the Polar Bear Swim running into the Pacific Ocean water
slightly above zero degrees with wind chill factor.
I used the 80-200 and it worked extremely well even though the 20D
viewfinder isn't quite the size of the R8.
As usual all settings were auto everything, of course no auto focus, but
everything manual focus sharp. The neat thing was the extra reach of the
lens due to the 1.6 factor of the sensor which made the 200mm to 320mm.
Quite convenient actually. ;-)
