Damn!... I went away for the weekend and some guy has everybody torqued
at him for making a bunch of Modernist Judgemental blurbs...

 All I was saying stands true.  I've NEVER used an AF camera I am going
to be shoting at the Canadian and MAYBE the US GP.  And I wanted a  AF
camera for that project. I am not  fastenough to catch  cars  losing
traction at 120   AND I hate the stand around in a corner and wait kind
of Photography. 
 Soo I'll be renting  a pair of F5s and  a couple lenses and hope that
by the end of the weekend I haven't destroyed them  and thus have to
buy them.
 Mr Scarpetti- I've worked (really worked not sold gear too) some of
the bigger names in PHoto in the last 10 years... the commercial advert
photographers are as you say  low in the self esteem dept... or at
least come of that way. The  Photo-journalists I know are anything but
dumb and aren't full of themselves and most of them you'd never even
know what they do for a living unless you met them on a professional
level.

Leica Content...
 I will be doing a test this week of my M6/ early 35f2 summicron  VS
the F3w/35f1.4 Nikkor... IMO there's no difference and I'll show ya in
a REAL TEST controlled conditions (studio) and on the street... Stay
tuned!

Jeremy
