Cathy (my daughter) made three trips to the hospital before they finally admitted her. After many hours of labor, all ended well with a beautiful baby: http://www.pbase.com/tinamanley/image/133939245 <http://www.pbase.com/tinamanley/image/133939245> http://www.pbase.com/tinamanley/image/133939260 <http://www.pbase.com/tinamanley/image/133939260>Photographically, I took my M9, R9/DMR, and Panasonic GF1 (I wanted the auto-focus in case I got to involved to be able to focus manually.) I've just done the first edit of the 1120 photos and I can tell you that I wish I had left the GF1 at home. Every photo made with it, would have been better with the M9. I know because I took several of almost exactly the same shot and I much prefer the M9 shots. I also thought maybe the GF1 would be better at higher ISO's - no. I didn't use the R9/DMR much because the light was so low and the camera is so heavy but I did get a few good ones with it. I'll post more but I have to get them approved by Cathy before I do. I didn't think she would mind these two! C&C greatly appreciated. Tina www.tinamanley.com
