Since the commercialism gloves seem to be off for the moment I will
take a swing.
For some time something has been bothering me.
John Hermanson contributes a huge amount to this list, I think few
would argue that point. He also sells available Olympus spares and a
few overhauled and refurbished items, yet does anyone see him
obnoxiously pushing his barrow ad nauseam? If anyone should have a
right to do so on this list without ill feeling it should be John.
I am constantly amazed to see postings from people who have said they
have gotten this or that do-dad from KEH or XYZ, such as a 2-13
screen, OM2000 or whatever, when they could have as easily got it
from John. What has KEH or XYZ ever contributed to us?
So I will take this opportunity to put in a plug For JH and Camtech,
since he is too much a gentleman to do so on his own account, so next
time you want something that is currently available, give a thought to
whether JH might not be a more worthy supplier of your needs.
