Re: [photo-3d] Konica to Ricoh

["Allan Griffin" <agriffin@xxxxxxxxxx>]

To: Ron Labbe (and others interested)

My Konicas are 25 years old now.  They will still be very usable for hypers
and all non-sports subjects.  After this amount of time some connections and
other factors are now less than reliable.

Yes, Ron, the lenses are a problem.  They are not useable on the Ricoh.  My
reason for going Ricoh is to make a fresh start with sports action.  I will
simply buy lenses for sports (say 135 & 200mm).  The other reason is that I
have been lucky enough to find a technician who can do a top master/slave
synch job which is something one only dreams about.  He will only do it IF I
guarantee not to refer any other customers!  I have already seen and tested
a sample job.
