<p>My advice is that if you have no non-AI lenses or already have a good camera to use with them get a better camera. N90's are practically being given away these days. If you have Nikon AF lenses,the N80's are gret cameras tht can bebought in LN-conditions for about $70. Consider a Nikkormat FT2 or FT3.</p>

<p>I have two 532/16 (s) in great condition except for minor Zeiss bumps, one a 6 x 6, and the other a 6 x 7, two leather cases (one decrepit) and a lens shade. I paid $170 for the most recent one, a month ago.</p>

<p>I have Thom Hogan's print field manuals 1 and 2 and his book on flash. I am considering his e-books for the F5 and the D300. I consider them fairly pricey, so I would like to ask if any of you have bought them and whether you have found them to be worth the price.</p>

<p>His print books are great.</p>

<p>I am glad that those of you who could download the June 1958 issue enjoyed it. I still haven't figured how do it myself but of course I have the original.</p>

<p>Some of the issues of that vintage had quite a few pages of camera ads and I may uplaod another. June 1958 was the month and year I graduated from college, and as for the admonition above concerning content, there is more prurient matter in today's Time magazine than there was in the Playboys of the 50s.</p>

<p>I am grateful to Playboy for introducing to Ian Fleming and James Bond. The short story "Hildebrand Rarity" appeared in PB in 1959 or 1960 and the base Library gad Casinoi Royale and From Russia With Love, and the JFK got elected in 1960 and made James Bond famous. I still subscribe.</p>

<p>Josh, would you advise me in great detail just how you managed to open the file successfully?</p>

<p>M M, I uploaded to file dropper and here are the links.<br>

I tried them and they do nothing for me. Perhaps you could tell me what I doing wrong.</p>

<p>I don't think copyright is a problem. Such files are posted to sites like rapidshare which require that you sign up and pay a minor fee.</p>

<p>Of course, I could email the entire pdf file, but I hate to request email addresses.</p>

<p>The entire PDF file is the June issue of the 1958 Playboy magazine, which I only read for the articles and interviews. They actually have some legit stuff as well as those disgusting playmates. I don't thin a link would be useful to you because it requires a non-free downloader. The only think I know how to do with a PDF is open it and read it. If there were a way that I could convert individual pages to jpegs, I would post them. I don't have a personal web site so I can't post it there.</p>

<p>Any suggestions would be helpful. I will take a photo of the first page and include it here.</p><div></div>

<p>I have a slew of Retina's including the big C.</p>

<p>Was there any difference between the Xenon f/2.0s and 2.8s on any of them? My understanding is that the f/2.8 lens was the same as the f/2.0 but the aperture control was mechanically limited.</p>

<p>I think most posters on this thread would enjoy this but it is an 11 meg PDF file.</p>

<p>Is it possible to post?</p>

<p>4 Nikon F's, 3 Nikon F2's, F3HP, F4s, F5, F100, about 10 Nikkormats, covering all the versions, FE, 2 FE2's, 2 FMN2's, 2 N90s, 2 n80s, 3 Canon T90s, one each of the F1s, 7 Leicas, 2 IIIc's's, 3 IIIf's, M2, M3, M6 (classic), all the Spotmatics, Minolta 101, 4 XE7's, 4 XD7's, several dozen Retina's up to the IIIC (big C), Voigtlanders beyond count, Vitessa's, vito matics, Prominent (4), Vito's, Zeis Contax IIa, 3 Contessa's 35, 2 Super Ikonta's (532/16), Bronica GS-1 4 Konica auto S2's, and digital Fuji 6900Z, zNilpn D70, D90, D200, D300 plus Canon A620 and A650IS.</p>

<p>I need professional help. The Canon A620 and 650 get used more than all the rest put together.</p>

<p>I have about 150 35mm cameras including most of the great ones, and I am fully sympathetic to owning a camera simply because it is a magnificently engineered and contructed device, but in terms of taking photos, doesn't a Nikon F100, with a range of lenses covering 24mm to 300mm cover nearly every need? One of my favorite combos for a one camera one lens outfit is a Nikon N80 with a 24-120mm zoom lens.</p>

<p>Gwen, I was born and raised in Niagara Falls NY and graduated from Niagara Fall HS and the University of Buffalo, and then spent the next two decades in the military. Your lens collection is probably more than you need and the 17-55 will be your most useful lens, I bet. Let me tell you what to visit.</p>

<p>Because the Niagara River takes a right-hand turn at the falls, the Canadian side provides the best views. The mist from the falls is a permanent feature and if the sun is shining, usually provides a rainbow. The Maid of the Mist, a boat that approaches the falls from the lower river can be impressive, but not for photography. You will be provided an essential raincoat onboard but there is just to much spray for photos. You MUST see For Niagara on the American side. It is located at the northern end of the Niagara river where the river flows into Lake Ontario. It was built by the French around 1719 and is the best preserved fort in North America, Its construction is brick and maisonry and provides many grand photo opportunities. Opposite Fort Niagara on the Canadian side is Niagara-on-the-Lake which is billed as Canada's most beautiful village. Great palce to have lunch and take photos. Some of the most significant battles of the war of 1812 were fought along the Niagara River, and you see the Brock Monument on the Canadian side which is a very tall column with statue of Brock on top.<br>

Most tourists don't get down to the lower rapids which are very impressive. The can be easily reached via Niagara Glen on the Canadian side or vis the Whirlpool Rapids-Devils Hole parks on the American side. Because of another bend in the lower river, there is a permanent whirlpool in the river, and a Spanish cable car that provides an opportunity to pass over it. Goot photoopportunity.</p>

<p>I hope you have a wonderful visit, and I will be most happy to answer any questions you may have.</p>

<p>I would use any of the following in preference to a Nikon FM (2 or 2n).</p>

<p>Nikon F90, N80, F100, or F5. You merely have to frame and press the shutter release.</p>
