Still massaging my elbow having had it bent severely by anty this morning.
Looking forward to joining some old friends on this Forum.
Known also as Fangman or Luddite . . . a typical grumpy old man who has been behind a viewfinder since 1948 . . . just getting the smell of hypo off my fingers! Now all digital into Lightroom and Photoshop although still have my first new camera c. 1952 Zeiss Nettar in working order and hanging on to my TL Rolei both 12 on 120 and Canon A1. Now a Canon 40D user with a 350D that I let the youngsters use when I do photo workshops with Youth Groups and mentally handicapped.
Hoping to keep that Penguin lover in her place and meet up with that man in Rutland.

What? L'il ol' me? Why, I wouldn't hurt a fly. And what exactly is 'my place'? At the spa, being fed peeled grapes?
Welcome aboard! Glad to have you join us!
[And I had to laugh at your reference to letting 'youngsters and mentally handicapped' use your 350D. That's the same camera as I use. :raisedbrow: ]

Welcome to the Beat! Happy to see you aboard. :D
Another Rollei owner! Rolleimaniac will be so pleased.
Why, I wouldn't hurt a fly.
Isn't that what Norman Bates said?

Thanks folks for the welcome - I thought I had better post something . . . . feathered friends as usual, but I look for the quirky fun images.
Brad . . . . I'm not boasting - but I do take out my 2.8E and stroke it occasionally but it hasn't benn used for a while. They knew how to build cameras then - something about the chunky feel of real equipment!

Hey, I look at it more like being a proud papa!! Yeah, there's something about leather, metal, and optically ground glass that turns me on... :thumbup:
If you have any spare time, post a photo of the 2.8E in the gear section, I'd love to check it out.
Cheers,
