AperAture

[Kim Coxon]

If we can get an electronic gizmo to change lense to lens and aperature to aperture, maybe it will put the odd capital in Joe's posts. 😀 😀 😀 😀

So do people put negitive film behind their lense?

I 'should of' used a faster shutter speed. I 'would of' got a better picture.

Maybe to spice up the discussion on the forum, Jorge can use the cuss word list to change "Leica" to "Sh*t Box" just for fun.

All the best,

Yo, here in Noo Yawk we say "shudda" and "wudda" ! 😀

Edited for being just plain dumb. As you were, nothing to see here.

Damn, damn, damn. I forgot the best of them all, the historic "Lecia" of which people speak.

Nick, didn't your running boards have a grammar correction feature? It seems to me that the backside of "substitute" is where its face should be.

Nick, I remember a car mechanic who nearly became a nervous wreck when he couldn't find a Beetle's engine where he thought it should have been. As for the grammar business, the old is replaced *with* the new while the new is substituted *for* the old. The words have the same meaning, but one -- you decide which -- goes in reverse gear. By the by, Ferdinand Porsche, the brilliant designer of the Volkswagen, probably would not take kindly to seeing the name of his baby misspelt. Nor, perhaps, would a certain Adolf H., said to have been the man who dreamt up the "people's car": although it's perfectly possible that he swiped the idea from an underling and put his name on it.

And don't forget the famous Rollieflex TLR. I like it alot. Its max aperature is limited but the lense is sooo sharpe!

Do you often find Rollieflexes in Brunie?

Not really, but there are mucho golden Lecias!

Abbazz, clearly I'm grown old: I forgot the Rolliekord (3.5 Zenar) I used from the mid 1960s until less than a half dozen years ago. But then that was not a range-finder design. I cannot forgive myself, though, for having ignored the Universal Intrusive Apostrophe: no one seems to write "its" any longer, possessive case be damned.
