But interestingly, as it got dark, I switched to ISO 2500... and shot some of it without a UV filter in front... The colors are really terrible, but the images, when turned into B+W, have a certain nice look to them..... I need to do some more work on them, but the ones taken with my 135 APO Telyt are quite sharp....... and in focus at F3.4, regardless what Leica says,,,,,, of course, I was about 100 feet away from the action ( about infinity....) BTW, it was a Portuguese Bullfight, where the bulls are not hurt..... and get escorted out of the ring by a bunch of "friends" with cow bells around their necks..... Lots of fun....look for your local bullfight .... some of the best bit of fun you can have.... Frank Filippone Red735i at earthlink.net
