    South-West England Cheltenham

    Well, it depends. There are some nice buildings, but really it's like any other town these days. It had the guts ripped out of it in the Sixties.

    Stopping down confusion

    I think so. The point being that if you rely solely on the aperture you may lose too much light. So, two stops, for me, might typically be one on the aperture, and one on the shutter speed.

    The Stop Down Button

    Yes, I did indeed mean aperture. I was not in full possession of my faculties. :p I take your point. Obviously the level of detail is governed by your aperture, etc. I just can't see it. I think Stephen has the answer. Yes, that would make sense. I can see that it would be much improved on a...

    The Stop Down Button

    I'm always bemused when a film camera has a stop down button. I mean what earthly use are they? I've never been able to discover a practical use for it. Yes, it stops down the shutter and makes your viewfinder darker. But what is the point of that?

    Non UK Bhutan

    I've beeb to Bhutan, many years ago. I'll have to dig out my old photos. Interesting place, and so much to photograph. You might not get to the Tigers Nest. They didn't allow people near it when I was there. Still, you will have an excellent view across the valley.

    Perhaps you stop down, and step up? :D

    Same manufacturer. The sound and smell of a 2T engine is addictive. :cool:
