Thanks John.  :). No, I haven't. I'm a little bit of the principle "who can do the most, can the least". Have you ? And what is the advantage ? 
I have the same principle, but I also like to experiment.  I noticed very good results when using the medium size mode. Firstly you get a fully flexible RAW (must be downsampled somehow with good results). Secondly, the speed, faster with shooting, and finally, a lot faster in post-processing. So when I don't need the full size, it's a very convenient feature to use.

Thx John. But what do you mean by “faster shooting” ?

Jacques, as many things as the French do in the world for the good , it seems more press coverage of other happenings.  This is so sad.  My son spent most of the Summer in Rome two years ago and I was hoping he would do the same in Paris in the next couple of years.  I had given him a list of some of my old haunts in Paris, not that Notre-Dame was a haunt but I used to sit at Shakespeare and Co. very often .   Looks as if we are still awaiting more info on the Pipe Organ (Frank) and other items.
All the best and our thoughts are with you and all Frenchmen (and women),
Tom

Thanks Tom, i guess it was quite a shock for everybody ! Maybe I'll find you on my old pictures of  Shakespeare &Co  ;)

Beautiful rendition.  The design taste of Angenieux as cine lens manufacturer seem to shine here in your experienced hands.

Well Jacques, I guess the up-side to such a calamity is that it could have been even much worse.  Kudos to the Fire Service and Staff and the way people are rallying around  :) .  Look for a thinner guy ( semi-military cut hair, I did have hair) sporting a Dali mustache with a Nikkormat or FM.   Interesting but I had forgotten all about "Point Zero" .

Paco,  agree with Akira and Frank,  It really grabs attention.  Until I got the 58 1.4 G the 60 2.8G was my 'Standard' lens for travel on the D700.  Size, weight and dual use.   Nice to see it on a Z.

Thank you Akira.

Angenieux's last photography zoomlens the AF 28-70/2.6 appears to be the best, less flare and chroma than the previous 35-70mm.  It's a bit softer in the edges but that is a bonus for the rendering.
