Re: Maco 820

Thanks for the comments, Jason,

I have an R72 which I have used with the SFX 200 (because a #87 just won't 
work), but with the Konica, I find a significantly nicer Wood + other effect 
with the 87.  I don't mind the low ASA, as I meter, hand-held, through the 
filter.  I'm not too sure of the effective ASA, but I think it's about 6 
stops below my meter setting of 50 ASA.  I've found that for landscape work, 
I have no problem with the Hassy at f/11 or even f/16 (I know, I know, 
diffraction, etc.) with MLU-equivalent and exposures often as long as 30 
secs.  A slight breeze can also induce a bit of leaf movement which can give 
a pseudo halation effect.  Try it, you'll like it.
