That was scary for a bit there

– no other way I’d have kept focus on that twirling Urlich.
Minoltas always preferred by wildlife photographers :-)

Russell: perhaps worth giving the correct figure in the body of this post? In bold? Just so it’s imprinted on our memories and also in Google’s search results.
Islander: Kermit can probably do legs akimbo. :-)
Chris W: thanks for your thoughtful analysis – fascinating, as always. Short-term political thinking leads to all kinds of evils. It’s one reason I support the Greens: they look decades ahead, not months.
Chris:
the veritable politician, cottoned on to the fact that the smoke of internet commentary has entirely replaced any fire the NZ constituent previously frothed, sleeps easy….
do you really think the internet stifles political protest? I would have thought the reverse was true (and the Save TVNZ7 campaign being a good example). Or have I misunderstood you?

Capture: Two Tripods, One Night, in reply to JacksonP,
I had an Olympus OM 10, with some lovely lenses, including a particularly fine 120mm. Unfortunately it developed an intermittently "sticky shutter" as so many of that kind did, so I had lots of overexposed pics until I switched with relief to a Minolta, which I still have, but haven't used in a long time. The Minolta felt very luxurious, my first AF camera! And a lightning AF at that. I remember what a manual-camera snob I was before that, I thought that automatic features were only for the inept! Then I realised they make life a lot easier. :-D

Aside from the question of disadvantaged people not having phone or internet access, who wouldn't prefer to be helped by an actual person? Talk about faceless bureaucracy! And so many of HNZ's clients are lacking in literacy and life-skills. Without someone to guide them through the process, would they even apply?

You are not like to find a bold short enough though
Ah yes, the old don't-puncture-the-camera issue ;-)
Thinking about it, I could probably use the half of my quick-release tripod attachment that goes onto the bottom of the camera: that already has a bolt the right size!

Koala cam?
