State University, Raleigh Lines: 18 Keywords: cameras, big five > I'm curious about something. You've got one camera from each of the big > five, plus a Ricoh. How did Ricoh get in there. Now just a darn minute! Your statement suggests that Ricoh is some backwoods company like Seagull or Diana. I'll have you know that you are insulting my favorite camera company. Ricoh may not have the reputation of Nikon or Asahi, but they have been making high quality, innovative cameras for a long time; the only thing the Ricoh XR-P lacks is snob value and its associated high price. Put that in your stainless-steel tank and develop it. -- *** REPLACE THIS MESSAGE WITH YOUR LINE *** Jon Mauney mcnc!ncsu!mauney C.S. Dept, North Carolina State University
