Oh yes, My name is Arnold Crane
What is this about old people. I have been using Digital Nikons and Leicas since they were first introduced. But I also still very much use film 35 to 4x5, and have had JOHN MINNICKS rebuild 3 old Graflexes for me, and I use a number of older lenses for the wonderful results I get. Look me up on Google--Yep, I have done all that stuff and it only took me 81 years to do it. Am still the most excited person I have ever known when I am involved daily, with the best thing I have ever known: PHOTOGRAPHY , Thank you Mons. Daguerre & Talbot, and Sir WJF Herschel and Talbot.
I have the lens. Bought it new in HK some 28 or so years ago. I still have it-as I do my Nikon 28-70 AF"s etc. The Angenieux has a wonderful quality to it and I plan to never give it up. The color rendering and sharpness are both superb!
I can strongly endorse this lens.
I saw that my whereabouts say--"in hiding".
If anyone wanw to really know where I am and how to reach me,send me a note @ cranepix@ameritech.net

Sachtler is the only way to real info, both fluid head and legs.
Try using it. You might come up with some interesting results, especially regarding portraits of older women. The lens might actually help to minimize spots and wrinkles, and act as it's own softening filter.
However, if you think the fungus is active, keep the lens isolated from your other optics, and perhaps in a silicon-gel bag for a bit, if you think it might be moist.

Perhaps he should be drawn and 1/4 rd. , or even worse, be forced to listen to a lecture by you on ELEMENTS of STYLE, by Strunk and White, and the Chicago Manual of Style, U of C Press, so he learns how to really communicate, and be heard and still not get his tripod answer. By A.J.R. I am sure your wife and children just love you !
Your answer to the poor guy about using capitals is just KA KA !
The internet is 'just the internet", and some folks here just don't know "the rules". Who really wrote them?!!! They are not real, but they are merely understood by those of us who have "been here " a while.
I am new to this forum, but being so sanctimonious is not going to solve his tripod problem.
Place it in damp/warm place for a month, and perhaps you might use what has been grown to cure diseases; and thus be awarded the next Nobel Prize.
Good luck !
