->problem is that they are not open to new possibilities, like using a
->halogen bulb in their viewers!  

Well, George, I'm under 50 too (just!) so I suppose I'm not OLD either,
but I bet I've been using Halogen bulbs in my viewer longer than you
have! I even had to modify the holder to take those unthreaded bases
with a flange, 'cos they weren't made with the edison screw in those
days! Also had to go to 6 volts - they weren't made in 3 volt versions
either! Of course, the higher voltage helps reduce flicker due to bad
switch contacts...

Well, my job doesn't pay too well, at the moment. May have to sell the
Hassleblads :-(
