Oh, I remember now! Maldive red sunset went wrong in the previous digital
translation and now at 27 mb it looks better. I'm thinking to publish it on
the Leica Users Gallery in order to get your comments, if you (all of you
here) may want.
123 mb - 16 bit and 4000 ppp... i'm going to think about how would be nice
use a scanner machine of my own, playing around those days (maybe even some
nights) that you really want to get "that" result you have in mind.
Lovely idea get pictures! I started in the last '70s with Olympus OM1, then
added OM2 with 24mm Zuiko and 75-150 zoom Zuiko. Great compact cameras and
lenses, until the Leitz virus get inside myself and... I think you know the
end, already!

Ciao!

Flavio
