For example, even Leica will tell you at extremely high altitudes the UV light is so strong that a UV filter will improve things. And sunglass have special UV filters built in. Some block UVA and some block UVB. Some both. Etc. ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch How do I set my laser printer on stun?
