Thanks, Colin. I think you and Jan must be much younger than I am (or
have much younger eyes)..but thanks to both of you--and to all who
never had a problem with reading the frame counter on the Zero 2000. I
did indeed learn how to "angle" it just right.. or I had my trusty
miniature flashlight with me. Still...I thought it was a pain, though
a very pretty camera, for sure. I don't own one anymore, so it's not a
problem for me. Just making a comment. I have no idea what kind of
wood was used.
