Oh I receive lots of the crap that comes to my screen from these useless groups! But I don't have any idea how to make them work? So I just delete them! THEY ARE 99.9% A WASTE OF TIME! I'M HERE FOR THE LUG! :-) And I have absolutely no interest in any other camera gear nor photos posted to NETWORKS taken by anything than photos captured with a LEICA! WHY? Well they have been my WORKING cameras of choice covering my assigned assignments for the past 65 years! I have absolutely no interest in other cameras on the market than Leica, nor the dumb ass computer networks! Oh yes during those 65 years I have tried other makes and discarded them in a matter of days while on an important assignment! website: TEDGRANT at SHAW O.C. cheers, Dr. Ted Grant O.C. -----Original Message----- From: LUG [mailto:lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca at leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Douglas Barry Sent: August-07-18 5:15 AM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Among non press the film vs digital was 1:1. That said one press shooter was using a Speed Graphic and a Hasselblad 500 cm with a 120 or 150 Peter, It seems Mark K is using his phone to post here and the content of his messages are going onto the subject line rather than where they should be. Anyway, if the gist is that press photographers are using older film cameras rather than Nikon or Canon digital, then I would suggest that they are amateur photography enthusiasts rather than actual press guys. Mark, post your pictures onto the Lug and give us here a link rather than use Facebook as some of us don't use it, and can't see your images unless we sign up to it. You may as well have put an old style film album containing the photos on the floor of the Sidi Yahiya Mosque in Timbuctu for people to browse through, as expect people like me to sign up for the Zuckerbook.
