CRISS adapter?

Hows about if you both just let this one pass. Political statements in a general forum like ours simply lead generally to the gutter. We can't solve anything here, so we are better off just sticking to what we have in common, Leica vs Zeiss, Canon vs Nikon, RF vs SLR. (Note, digital vs film is not on that list)

Agreed. I accept the olive branch. I'll drop it, and resume my campaign against the larger demon, DSLRs.

*edit* Yes, I'm only joking.

Thank you.

Well, you have to see some of the things I type when I get up too early in the morning. I am a grumpy ******* before I have my coffee. The backspace key saves me very often.

Ooooh, I typed a no no. 😱

Maybe I should delete it. :angel:

I am not an expert in US law but under European law, mercury batteries themselves are not illegal. It is only illegal to manufacture them or import them. If you come across a genuine stock of old mercury batteries, it is perfectly legal to own them and to use them. Common sense really, they are going to be disposed of anyway so you may as well use them first. Using them doesn't cause a problem.

The ones I am talking about have been illegally smuggled into the country. Occasionally, you can find them at vintage and antique camera shows.

I am perfectly willing to do that. I just resented the poster assuming I was a supporter of Bush. I'm way to the right of him.

So, with that we close another chapter of this square dance.

One Step to the Left...

Two Steps to the Right......

Before this thread goes completely sideways, I'd like to ask if anyone knows of a source for BAT83 Schottky Diodes? I've tried in the past but could not locate a source in North America unless I was willing to purchase a large quantity.

Cheers,

Last time I checked, which was a few years back, Radio Shack sold packages of 10. You might do better searching for an NTE585 diode. Some thing, but many of the electronic firms here seem to prefer to call it that.
