1941 Mauser Banner Police

Hey Tom..!

I think the 5400 has the same - or better - MACRO capability then my/Heinz's Coolpix? What I found is that I had to set up a MANUAL mode, and be careful of the light source for color balance. As well, Albert (Imperial Arms) was kind enough to share his setup, as I know he uses some special lights and such - and his pictures are outstanding!

Now about the Kriegs... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> I think the hardest ones for you to located verified examples will be (in no order) 1938, 1944 (late), G, "36", 1945 (along with the questions on whether they really exist <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> ), 1941.. Most of the other variations will come up more frequently. (BTW: I would have added 1943 RIG to that list of difficult ones, but - well, you know... Heh... )

BTW - well - so much for me collecting Banners - maybe I should focus on... NAW - I'M not telling you!! I don't need competition!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
