👖 First pair ordered online, a little tight. Second, is a little loose. I guess third time will really be a charm.
A great review, LOADS of great photos too. What else was I expecting from Craig?
"And while I was suspicious of the value of the camera at first, these past six months have made it clear that this machine has serious legs. I now understand the limitations of this photographic instrument, of which there are few. And I trust and enjoy it more than any other camera I’ve owned."
