What's the best film to use? Which camera? Any advise with posing the wee people? I've tried everything and still can't get a good picture. There's only a few hours left. Please help!
Photographing leprechauns.

How about Fuji film? Even though it's Japanese, it's green. Think that would help?

Best camera : Something quiet and quick focusing that can handle a long lens. ZI or M3. Probably M3 since it's quieter. Tonight, I'm going out to Renton, to the Giant's Causeway to see if I can catch any Leprechauns on their night off. Bringing the RF645. Benefit of the larger negative and the wide angle lens is that I might catch a few in the frame that I didn't see at first.
At the local lab outlet one of the young lady clerks has what looks like leprechaun footprints on her bosom... one tiny footprint on each, err... Well, I've been carefully watching her cleavage so as not to miss any leprechaun who may appear, but so far no luck. Maybe those are just tattoos...

Whatever camera you use, you'll probably have to use flash. I know it's not very RF-ish, but the only wee person I ever saw was illuminated by lightning, running across my campsite in the summer of 1993. Since I've never seen one in continuous light, I have to conclude that flash would be the only one to capture one on film.

Oh well... I had no luck. Maybe next year. I think I'll start hanging around with Doug, however, for a better chance!
