  1. <p>No spotify account here. I did not get the notification when coming back to photo net. It retrospect, I may have received the Norton alert when accessing the Unified forum page, but I had not traveled farther then that. </p>

    <p>thanks Josh. </p>

  2. <p>Matthew, I have a OM 50mm 1.4 that is is a 1.1M+ serial number. I have 5 Oly 50's so parting with one won't kill me. I have not done any comparisons and have been plenty happy with pics from any of those I owned. Shoot me an e-mail off-line if interested. </p>

    <p>There's been a bit of talk about it of late, particularly when it first came out. The above were from a quick search but may yield something of interest. Some of the original posters from the other threads may jump in with further results.</p>

  4. <p>Similar to Matt I coiled mine and used a small "zip strip" to attach it to the tripod leg (not too tightly) and cut off the excess. I like the velcro idea so you can remove it more easily but I constantly catch velcro on everything. If I wanted to remove mine I simply cut the strip and reattached it when ready. Small bags of the zip strips can be purchased for next to nothing. </p>
  5. <p>You might do a search as this question came up some time ago. There may be some helpful information in that thread. We toured the school when my son was looking a few years ago. They spend some money on equipment (top computers at the time, printers, scanners, darkroom, etc.). The faculty said their photography students don't touch digital until about year 3. Whether that is still the case I don't know. Times are changing quickly now. I have no idea about graduate success in finding employment. </p>
  6. I have the 28mm 3.5 and while mine performs well (sharp, small, etc.) I often wish it were faster. The viewfinder image is noticeably more dim. If you can swing it I'd follow the advice above and get the faster version. Since the results are in the pictures, I don't think you'll be disappointed either way but sometimes it's better just to save a bit longer and purchase the lens you were really after in the first place.
