Again, he got whacked in the head with the lens. This time, I must admit I knew what was coming and perhaps moved a little swifter and harder. At that point I told him if he moved in one more time, I would take him out with the lens. And yes, I was American and was familiar with the rag he should have been taking pictures for. He was somewhat shocked (no doubt the 2 head thumps helped) and slunk off to the back of the group. His 'friend', shooting for a major car monthly, started laughing and told me he was glad someone finally did something like that. We managed to share the space from then on. Now, the M6 (nor my Mamiya 6 that I did have there) would never have been as good a tool :-> And Mark wonders why I like my Nikons so much :-> It seems to me that an R8 with winder and 70-180 APO or 105-280 would be even more effective than the N**** glass in these circumstances too!
