There, that sounds good, I'll try that on my wife >this evening, could be the cost justification I need! Hmm, wouldn't work with my wife! I "upgraded" my old 35mm Summicron for a new Aspheric one yesterday at a local camera fair, and that was a hard one to justify to my wife. It's a bigger, heavier lens, and is the same spec as the previous one, so explaining why I spent a weeks wages on it is tricky. Any ideas you might have with that one will be gratefully recieved ;-) Simon. Totalise - the Users ISP - ---------------------- To become a member and a shareholder visit http://www.totalise.net
