    Oh yes, cut my teeth on good ol' Lens Guru! You're right, 'digital' hadn't taken off yet. Even then, the manufacturer's graphic channel maps were never standardized anyway. (Can you imagine how hard Astronomy would be if marketing departments 'customized' all the data print outs? Good thing celestial objects don't have business investors....)

    We're dating ourselves, Tallboy. ;)

    I was thinking the same thing about 35 or so posts back, and that confirms it. Oh well.

    I've been informed my worst case fears regarding the OP are unfounded. Welcome to Optiboard userod. Keep asking questions, and we'll try to provide useful data and some of our experiences in the field.

    Best regards,

    You funny Jeff. Making sense doesn't explain it to anyone else. But sense is a good word for your experience.
