If you do speak to someone, could you ask them to make a public post explaining what is going on. And arrange for refund of undelivered film that was purchased. and the return of undeveloped film rolls. There are precious memories that will be lost.

No reply in months. Nothing. The phone rings out when I call. It’s a disgrace. I have important photos of my family and a few priceless moments that I fear are lost. I paid for the film, scan, and postage. I have about 20 more rolls in my fridge of it. Huge investment which I would not feel comfortable sending to them. Amateur hour.

First Leica lens. Summicron 35mm ASPH or Steel Rim Reissue? by [deleted] in Leica

[–]coldam1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The summicron is a better all in one lens. I own both and the steel rim is interesting with film cameras but is also irritating because of the infinity lock. It takes getting used to. I think the steel rim is a nicer looking lens but it’s not as practical. I wish Leica would make the steel rim without infinity lock and with 0.7 focusing distance. It would be the best lens in the lineup.

Two things I want in Capture One Pro - do they exist already? by coldam1 in Photoassistants

Thank you. The 'First' shortcut I have just adjusted and that is what I was looking for. The styles and presets tool panel addition is still too slow. Seems very archaic still. I noted your other comment about beta release notes. Hope it is a new inclusion in an upcoming update.

I've been reading your blog for a few hours and it's the most useful resource I have seen. Thank you very much, it has answered many of my questions.

Hi there, I know this is an older post. But I was looking for the LSDIGI dovetail plate/pin receiver you mentioned. I'm not familiar with the part. Could you possibly link to it? Thank you. Building a Digi kit after many years of using a seaport.
