Mr. Odess was truly a fine, kind, generous with his time gentleman. He serviced my Hassy and spent a lot of time chatting on the phone about various Blad issues. His claim to fame was that he was the only camera repair technician in the US to have been trained by Hasselblad at their factory. He said there were two other guys similarly trained but they had both passed away. At the time he had my camera, he said he had about 50 cameras on his bench waiting for his attention. He will truly be missed by anyone he ever encountered during his lengthy career. May he RiP.

Truer words were never spoken!

To those ardent anti-vaxers, no amount of reason, logic or scientific data can deter them from their delusions about efficacy or dangers of vaccinations. Remember polio? Well that was pretty much wiped out by vaccination. One thing that can't be prevented or cured: Stupid.

Storing your CA glue in the freezer prolongs it's life. It doesn't freeze, not even the thin variety, but the cold temperature keeps the stuff from clogging up it will last longer.

Or switch to cannon gear.

After shooting events for 30+ years, I find that the obligatory group shots are well received by the event holders but the candid shots are more appreciated by the individual(s) in the shots.

Found a Kodak metal one in an old trunk, opened it and yikes, it WAS full of weed.

You look handsome enough in your photo, of course it may be 20 years old. Save your $$ for tools and lenses.
