Hi
I've been looking at Douglas's scanned images and I would really like to know
how they were scanned. I have rather a lot of slides and negatives that I would
like to scan but I not sure what the best and reasonably affordable method is.
Currently I'm using an Epson 4870 flatbed with film carriers but it is slow,
the Nikon Coolscan 9000 looks good but expensive for extra carriers.
The other option is to put the canon on a Multiblitz or Elinchrom duplicator
and copy the slides at 1to1 ratio.
Any help or suggestions that you can will be greatly appreciated except for
those with unpleasant language.
Regards
John

Thank you David,
There is more of my home county to come as soon as I've done some more
scanning - along the lines of pastures green, valleys of desolation,
green and pleasant lands and dark satanic mills. William Blake certainly
knew what he was writing about in the words for Parry's "Jerusalem".

Guys,
I am going M for now. Getting a repainted black M2. Time to shop for M
lenses. However, I still want to keep R6.2 in mind. Will try to find a decent
one. For now, my R lenses will go together with my Canon 5Dm2.

I wouldn't recommend an R4S because it is akward to use with manual metering.
I had one, but "upgraded" to an R4 just for that reason.
BTW, my R4 has one of the "bad" serial numbers but has been completely reliable
in the three years I've had it.
Another possibility to consider is a Leicaflex SL or SL2 instead of the R6.2.
You get a larger and heavier beast, but a better viewfinder and many other
things.

Hi there,
I am currently using a Canon 5Dm2 and since I've bought a Summicron-R 50 f2 to
be used with adaptor on my Canon, I am hooked!! I've since bought a 35 cron n a
50 lux. currently, looking for a film SLR.
Deciding between R4S, R-E, R5 or R6.2. advice?

Fellow Flexers:
I do not know who "Phil...Vario: is, for he only subscribed
yesterday. That was his first, and final, post.
He has been suspended and can no longer post. I have asked him for
an explanation as well as letters of apology to both Douglas and the
list. If these are not provided, within 24 hours, he will be
unsubscribed and permanently blacklisted from the group.
Somehow, I do not think I will receive anything. If I do, and he can
convince me that he has reasonable qualifications to continue to
participate in this list, he will be allowed to remain on the list,
but as a "read only" member. You will not hear from him, again.
A second chap subscribed yesterday and, shortly after Phil... Vario's
post, he unsubscribed. Can't say that I blame him, for if Phil's
language were typical of this list, I wouldn't want to belong,
either! I have written him a letter, as well, explaining the
situation, in the hopes that he might rejoin the list and give it a
somewhat longer trial.
Thanks for reading, and for your understanding.
David.

Yes, the address raised suspicions as soon as I saw it. Moments later

The sad part is that if he does, indeed, have a lot of time on his
hands, there are so many better ways he could spend it.

Hi David,
An excellent action picture including the dust.
The rider has her tongue between her teeth in concentration, The depth of
field covers the sharpness of both the horse's head/face and the rider.
usually one or the other can be soft in this on coming type action.
You must be amassing a fine collection of rodeo pictures. I'd hope you are
also watching for the sponsor logos behind and around the actions purely as
"FOR SALE" images to said sponsors. Or media requests as well as stock
images. And every week when you have your usual smashing photos you contact
every sponsor with photos you have with their name clearly visible in the
frame.
This is no different than skating championships where we always tried for
best action with a name sponsor logo behind the skaters. It can make extra
dollar return from every event. Not to forget contacting the sponsor shown,
as well as finding out who their primary advertising agency is beyond this
local rodeo. .. In particular "who has their main National or international
adverting account?"
Once again another fine action photograph! Actually it must look great as a
13X19 size print!
As you go from one rodeo to the next, do you take an 8.5X11 print in
envelope ready for immediate sale to the riders, families and friends? Many
of them must do the circuits every weekend so have a print along can
automatically put dollars in your pocket. Besides, by now you must becoming
"THE RODEO SHOOTER OF THE DAY!" to competitors and crowds so they' almot
automatically expect you to come along with a photo of thm in action. Trust
me they don't always have to be the "million dollar shot"! :-)
I did this in the good old days of stock car racing and quite often came
home with an $100 bucks just from selling 8X10's to the drivers and pit
crews. And from orders for prints I'd deliver the next week race.
Cheers,
Dr. ted :-)
