He had me "two finger salute" the camera (a reset), and suddenly autofocus came back. I've got to stop fiddling with the damned knobs...but that's what my old girlfriends used to say, too. Oh well. Anyway, I asked, "So when the hell are you going to have a reasonably priced DSLR with a full-frame CCD," and he said, "I can't tell you, but...it will be much sooner rather than later." Finally. That's OK. I've got another daughter who'd *love* a good deal on the D200, if the full frame is something I really need. I still don't see what the issue is, however. -- John H ****************************************** ***** Have a Spectacular Day! ***** ****************************************** |
