- Well, I'm a photographer for my school yearbook, and as a result was
- able to legitimately photograph 10,000 Maniacs a a short while ago. I
- used both color neg film and color slide film. When i get the slides
- back, I'll post my results. No mini-labs to screw up these babies,
- just my own stupidity (hopefully not :) ). By the way, i was shooting
- a Nikon F2 and FM2 with a 300mm 2.8, 85mm 1.4, 180mm 2.8, 50mm 1.4, and
- a 16mm full frame fish-eye, all at once! (yeah right.) I don't expect
- anything at all from the 16mm. I'll let y'all know how the slides
- came out, though.
