Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Too true man :| but this is a family camera, and then digital is much handier for sharing pics with the family.

it's unfocused and the horizon isn't square, don't mistake a nice location for a nice photograph

:( sadly I don`t have any and can`t find any online either. taking pictures was prohibited as far as I can remember and the stairs where in the entrance hall I think, so lots of museums attendants..... but still it`s strange that no one took pictures - I hope they didn`t remodel...

It is focused - from 18 inches to Infinity in fact - with Hyperfocal focusing. If has been re-scaled and compressed of course, to make it manageable for the 'net, like most images. The Horizon is square too - you've never been there, so how would you know ... Easy to criticise, not so easy to create ... We're waiting to see your efforts?

Next time try give it a go then :D Another advantage of film cameras is they won't notice if it's a silent one and they can't delete pictures either as they can't prove you actually made one :innocent:

I would've dragged the left hand side down too myself, to be honest, it just looks slightly slanted this way. Not wanting to be the difficult one here :wink:
