Hi BW:

> Does anyone use the Databack's?

I've used them over the years.  Here are some possibilities:
* Oblique aerial photography of many tracts of land or bird nests on a given
flight.
* Testing lenses and apertures.
* Plot or transect identifications for field sampling of vegetation.
* Recording a site ID on a frame prior to shooting landscapes from that site.

I liked the Databack 2 because it gave lots of dials and options.  The
downside was horrible paint which flaked off from sweat.  It also added some
to the weight of the camera, which I didn't appreciate when the camera was
hanging from my neck in a Cessna.
