Very well done David!!
Just to stir the mix, at the following site you can see two recently
uploaded "portraits" taken with the R9, 80-200, on Fuji NPH 400 Pro film.
Since I have no scanner, the images were scanned directly from the "photo
machine" onto a CD disc by my local Fuji dealer, and then uploaded to the
site from my computer Not as convenient as digital, but certainly a very
good alternative. By the way,on the same site there are a few pictures
taken with the M 7 camera, and uploaded in a similar fashion. Using film I
can still get the images easily onto my computer for manipulation ( these
images were not manipulated in PS ) as desired. Again, obviously not nearly
as convenient as digital, but then again, no added expense.
