[Leica] Help received- photographic terminology

[douglas.sharp at gmx.de (Douglas Sharp)]

Thanks to everyone for helping - really too many of you to mention 
everyone by name.
The Denkzettel in the sense of a "shot across the bows", "something to 
think about" or a "warning for evermore" I am familiar with after 30 
years of work over here in Hannover - had enough of them from my old 
boss (a Greek tyrant) :-)

The big problem you keep coming up against when you're a translator is 
when some advertising or marketing geek picks up a word and uses it in a 
totally foreign context (as here) - they do it in English and German all 
the time - it's pretty obvious what is "meant" ( A list of things to do 
- and all hell be upon you if you don't - and that's why you signed it  
on the bottom line). I just couldn't find it anywhere in a photographic 
context.

Anyway, now I have a whole bunch of useful alternatives, from highly 
technical to colloquial - thanks again everybody, both on-list and off - 
what a wonderful bunch of people!!
