Re: Fun with MF images - Part 3
"I have spent a fair amount of time in places where the police/military are either corrupt or ineffective."
Yes, me too (I lived a year in the Russian far east), but I don't think more or better guns makes militaries or police less corrupt! Nor do I think we can do without them. I did not mean to make a political statement, I just meant it as a joke. It seems kind of a strange statement to be written on a weapon to me...somewhat inconsistent with the original idea.
BUT, I do not want to drag the thread down with my flippant remark. David -- I have a 17mm extension that gets very close with the 80mm...I think the 9mm is probably more useful in some situations. There is actually a variable "zoom" extension tube 22-68mm. It is usually used as a lens body for the 150mm apo symmar, but it could be very useful for the macro range.
So here is a random medium format image to keep things on track.
