One of my photographers is struggling with his Pentax PZ-1 because the mirror won't settle down completely, and he can't even focus manually with it. Focus is grossly off by such a slight difference in where the mirror sits. Of course, the M6 has the same weakness in that you don't know when it goes out of adjustment until you see the film. And most other cameras that aren't view cameras could suffer from either of these scenarios, so I guess we all face this potential problem. Except for the fact that it's a basic fact with the G2, and only a problem with the M6 when it gets out of adjustment. ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Logic: The art of being wrong with confidence...
