> * essential camera bag reference
- The user manual to my Pentax PZ-1. I am not sure it is a happy state of
affairs when a person has to carry a damned manual to be able to enjoy a
camera, but you asked.
- I also carry in my head questions asked by John Shaw (and I paraphrase):
Could you find your 24mm lens in your camera bag right now? Another is: If
your lens manufacturer had wanted you to put a filter on your lens, don't
you think they would have sold it to you that way?

(edited by Carol Di Grappa): "Only mad dogs and Helmut Newton go out in the
midday sun with a camera."

- Engagement calendars, a different one each year. In 1999 and (I think)
2000 I really enjoyed the Kodak Engagement calendars and I am sorry they
seem to have disappeared. For 2001 I have had one by Art Wolfe -- I am
getting tired of looking at the work of just the one guy all year. For 2002
I found the Audubon Society calendar.
