Tom - very nice catch!

Forgive my impertinence but some may not be aware you may need to click on
the Original size version to get the GIF (and see movement). For convenience,
here's a direct link: http://www.pbase.com/polakis/image/161853581/original

Also, what camera do you have that takes 4 seconds to download (at 3x3 no
less).


Bill,

Thanks for the corrected link -- not the best 'feature' of PBase.

It's an SBIG STXL-6303, one of the only large-format cameras that does *not*
have anti-blooming. The download at 3x3 is more like a couple seconds, but
there's another couple seconds to display and take the next image. The 1x1
download time is not much longer.

Tom
