It's a model1118 and the dimension are 11" x 18" with a 5000K lamp. Thanks for your interest.

I have an almost new Porta-Trace light box and Horizon focusing loupe that I an enxious to sell. Frankly I'm not sure of the value but will accept any reasonable offer. Buyer to pay shipping. Thanks for reviewing this.

Yes, it's an outstanding lens and a bargain at that.

You very well might though if you drove an Audi or VW,but I think you missed the point.

If the snobs wouldn't buy the Leicas, Zeiss cameras and lenses, L Series, MBZ's, Porsches etc that pay for the engineering of products that ultimately end up in the consumer market then the "reverse snobs" would have nothing to critisize, would they....?

Money well worth spent and besides you might enjoy the train ride too.

Interested in a 24 f/2.8 AIS and or a 105 f2.5 AIS?

As the name implies it's 1.6X however I think it'll probably have to be used in manual focus which isn't bad if you are filming birds at infinity. Suggest you check with some photo sites for confirmation.
Thanks

First, I would suggest you read Ken Rockwells report; it's a pretty accurate discription. I used a Contax G2 system for years along with my Nikon F6 and I have to say the Fuji is a splendid camera in terms of exposure, professional features etc. It's like a digital, but not quite as well made, Contax but smaller and lighter. Probably the main draw back for many is the fixed focus lens ie 35mm equivalent, but which suits my style for most things I do. I highly recommend it and would say it's closer to being a Leica rather than the other point and shoot cameras you are looking at.

Would you be interested in a SB400? Also have an 105mm 2.5 AIS lens(manual focus) which is wonderful for portaits and also a 180mm 2.8 ED AF in case you are interested

Some years ago I believe I read that modern photo processing equipment is set up to compensate for mistakes amateurs make ie over/inder exposures so everyong gets "perfect" prints. Don't know if this is the case but my Costco experience seems to bear this out.
Thanks for your reply.

I have had similar experiences with Costco where brackited shots all look the same. Is the answer to send film to a custom lab? I'd be interested in other members experiences.
Thank you

You know, we've been fed so much propaganda about white lenses that this may be the beginning of a new campaign; you know everything is cyclical so may be this is the beginning of the black lens accension?
