[rollei_list] SL66 in nature photography, was: The Tragedy of the SL66

Mike:
Here is some of the Danesch's work for sale at ZVAB.com / Choosebooks.com:. http://cgi.choosebooks.com/SESSz102501520711176902782/cgi-bin/ n_xsearch.cgi? uc=us&shp=0&dcurr=USD&noimg=0&lang=en&ath=Danesch&tle=&term=photography& isbn=&days=&rpp=10&x=40&y=5
I have their gorgeous "coffeetable" book "Natur im Nahbereich" and there is a chapter by them in the 100-page+ Rollei SL66 promotional book I have on my shelf ("Die Rollei SL66 in der Wissenschaft.." etc.). I am sure others on this list have that book.
Yes, I think there is a distinctive look to nature and close-up photographs taken with the SL66. Must have something to do with the waist-level viewing and maybe (??) with the particular Zeiss lenses developed for the camera.

Thanks.  I am not familiar with that nature work that you cite.  Its
amusing when a certain piece of equipment or photographic approach
causes us to unwittingly repeat the past work of others.
I use a Gossen Luna Pro F incident meter and a Soligar Digital 1 degree 
spot meter for all of my work.
