Here's a link to a web page I made about using my MPP last week - any comments would be welcomed.

Excellent work Matt! It must have been very difficult to capture some of the action scenes given that your viewfinder was wonky.

Well Done. :D

Thanks George, it made me realise how difficult it must have been for press photographers of old!

Good work I have a MPP and have thought about using it as a press camera as it was designed but have chickened out. This is an inspiration and I will give it a go. I have been toying with a return to the Appleby horse fair that might be the event.

Hi Bob

I'd urge you to take up the challenge - it's certainly an experience. The most memorable part for me was lugging the gear up a steep hill and being completely out of breath at the top... and that was only the camera, flash, light meter and 135mm lens.

Having a total of ten shots certainly focuses one on what should or shouldn't be photographed.
