Thank you Chuck. This was not my question but I truly appreciate you hopping up to the plate to answer it. About the only job I might imagine as more thankless than yours--is begging for donations for a charity. Begging is easier than sitting between often angry consumers and any corporation.
Good stuff you do and great cameras your company makes. Hiro Misaki is an occasional customer of mine. He's off and about? Last we spoke, he told me he was returning to Japan to run your consumer camera divison on that end.
He is a very polite and pleasant man and I tell stories about him often-- this is a picture of the last fish he caught while with me. It's a rather stunning image in its way. The scales of the fish pop off its back and the knots in the string are delightfully defined.
It's little or huge depending on perspective, a 70 pounder caught moments before he had to run for a plane. He showered at my house after the catch and hit a very crowded road on a Memorial day weekend.
A Canon shot of course with an A2 and a 35-135 F4-5.6. There is more to this story, as there often is when someone captures a huge fish or a great image.
Please have a great day.
For those who do not know, this is a five foot long fish and it is every bit as beautiful as the picture suggests. This is what I do.
