Greetings Fred,
congratulations on your departure from 'Lurking Status'. I am personally
quite interested in seeing some of your 'Viso' shots. I think the whole
visoflex concept was a very cool engineering accomplishment and I wonder about
how well they work as lenses. Please bring some image links to the group shot
with "whatever" equipment, they're welcome here. I personally was 'led' to
Flickr.com when I used to post on the Canon POTN forums. It's fairly straight
forward to upload there and to easily get the right 'link' to the images one
wants to share - if it wasn't 'easy' I wouldn't be able to post links! (I'm
exaggerating, but I would have needed lots of hand holding to figure it out.) I
haven't posted a link in awhile, but I think I'll get a few out there in a day
or two. I shot a lot of images at an indoors family event with my Summicron
f2/50 and Elmarit f2.8/90 by available light.

Greetings All,
I am a stay-in-the-background kind of guy, but it's time to introduce
myself. I've been a Leica M street shooter for forty years and a Viso
flower nature landscape dabbler for 10 years or so. I initially signed on
to the list to ask about some R lenses I was thinking of buying -but
didn't- and have been taken by the open friendliness I've felt here.
Every list has its own flavour and friendly certainly is the flavour of
this one.
As for posting, I'll have to see what reflex work I have worth exposing
myself for on the internet.
It says Fred Rosenberg on my driver's license. Please call me Fred.
