    Robert, few cameras can come close to a 'blad, I'm sad you sold yours, but since they where made so well there will always be some going around if you feel like owning one again. I am myself in the market for something smaller right now...

    Justin, I am glad to see you finally got to that razor after our talk today. I knew it would serve its purpose well, the steel was excellent.

    By my mind-
    each camera is as good as the man/woman behind the ocular.
    The Hasselblad's are the Best of the Best-of course, but you can do nice shots with all cameras with a clean lense.

    It is a difference if you will produce pictures for a forum or you will produce prints in 13'' x 19''.

    And btw:
    Take a look at the website about Ansel Adams- he was and is the best one.
    Some days ago I bought the Ansel Adams app for my iPad and sent private greetings to some friends. All they were impressed.

    Wacker Mod.3 Black Edition | MWF | Shavemac Custom | Floid



    Little bit bit disappointed with the factory edge on this new Wacker, but, only because the edge on my Mod.4 was so good- perhaps my expectations were a tad high...

Coming here and reading and conversing on each others Shave of the Day, and all the other threads posted is a highlight of the day for me. This is a great group of people here that I'm proud to be a part of. This is by far, in my opinion the best site of its kind on the Web. Thanks so much for the stand up job you do on this site.
    Thanks, Mark "aka blugill"
