VW 1302 Super Beetle has acquired it's original physical performances after rear toe adjustment into adequate value, from negative to positive. Quick, vivid and light pleasantness while driving has been obtained and the efforts to adjust the wheel alignment of rear axle have been rewarded. What is supposed to be necessary should be done however tired and hard task it may be to cause arm muscle pain after that.
Official papers have been prepared for garage parking place certification and the dealing is moving on newly ordered SUBARU BRZ for my son? Then how would be model BLE that he is now using, keep it or desert it away?

Disagreement friend 6 month ago came back to me again yesterday, I felt so happy because the affair broke out by my own mistake and discord. I must talk with him more deeply on our past problems.

Finding out how to peep into the deep inside of my emotion is one of my lasting challenge for tens of years. Mr, Keiichirou Hirano who is one of an Akutagawa Prize novelist has been publishing a few books in relations with the title. I'm going to try one of them, hoping that would be of some help to me to know "What I am?".

The first generation triplet L-Elmar 135/4,5 had been set into Minolta 135/3,5 barrel to be operated on SLR camera X-700 automatic exposure silver salt film body. Now, it is about to modified again to adopt with Canon EOS Digital format, suppose that an original production over 60 years ago did not have any range finder coupling design, with all sophisticated digital format body it might be frightened to stand on a new stage?

I received two bad information yesterday that I wanted to refuse, noticing their death reports. Both of them should not go because of age far younger than I am. Some rapid metastasis of cancer must be the reason. Though it is their profession, they could not ride over malignancy in their own bodies. Thinking over their family left alone without any emotional and financial support, just it's sorry so much.
As seasons change, I hope this kind of information should not follow after these affairs.

I've been paying attentions to the potentials on the capability of resolution and reproduction of especially texture of human skin. Minolta Rokkor 50/1,4 for manual and silver salt film demonstrate the ability to reproduce the texture on the transparency, exactly the same result was obtained when I caught a smaller subject dressed yesterday. I prefer to shooting infant's cute cheeks with Rokkor 50/1,4 without any argument. Tightness of the images are not always strong enough, still I could obtain sweet transparencies. The property of just a friend to eyes is not provided by the residual spherical aberration like ancient Leitz Summar 50/2,8, but by some intentional seasoning by Multi-casting method introduced at that period of time. I have no regret to have modified this old Minolta optics adopting onto Canon EOS Digital format.

Minolta manual focusing SLR lens MC Rokkor 50/1,4 was modified to adopt on Canon EOS Digital mount successfully. Though a little effort was required to adjust the rear part of lens element case in the narrower mirror box(lack of lens back distance), The most backward infinity position was acquired without any optical additive like a mount adapter in the market, but just with it's innate adjusting mechanism. This old Minolta but with excellent and ultimate optical performances would be tested today.

Also, L Emar 90/4(ELANG) was modified to do on Digital format that had been done on Minolta lens barrel already, so the same manner as I did on Minoltas. An antique over 60 years ago has now survived like a phoenix on Digital format!
Of course I know that this kind of modification might be somehow lopsided way of enjoying photography hobby, I dare do like this because I want to make it possible what impossible by myself.
