Guillermo,

Thanks for noting the needed fix on the Ensign Ful-Vue. It should
show up now, though it is not very exciting.

I know, and I shouldn't have made the comment. Or I should have said
it with tongue-in-cheek.

I am on several lists and when the topics do stray, the issue
occasionally arises -- but I've learned quite a bit from those
tangential conversations. On this list, I deleted a whole bunch of
the "4x5 film holder" posts until I opened one and discovered
discussion of the Zero Image 4x5 camera which I am interested in!
