( Myself included )! But it is pretty funny to watch nonetheless. Sadly it's fairly true. In talking to my local camera dealer they tell me it's the hardest thing to do in this digital photography age, ie: getting folks to print out their photos for posterity. Also wondering if any of you have used a Leica R lens with an adapter on a Canon or Nikon DSLR for video purposes. I was watching some of the new videos from Chase Jarvis for the new Nikon D7000 which has the 1080 P video mode and they looked pretty decent. Got me thinking as to how they would perform with a Leica lens on that camera. I know Nikon is touting the use of older Nikon manual lenses such as the 50 f2 for video purposes. I've tried it on a Lecia D5000 but was not overly impressed. A link to Chase Jarvis and the new Leica D7000 for video for those interested, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMbBKukJzBk Good shooting this weekend! Scott
