Absolutely excellent historic photo's,the more that are preserved in the public domain the better,if you can't scan photo's try and photograph them using macro mode on your camera,great stuff,thanks. ;)

You should practice with it as it's not likely to cost you anything but time,in your case I think that you will enjoy the fact that the mode makes ordinary objects appear huge which should positively enhance your prospects in your other job.

Just saying.

It's a close-up mode,select it and get close to the thing that you want to photograph,get close and look.

Todays Trivia - The monocoque frame on the KR500 was used as some of the inspiration for the ZX12R frame.......also being a monocoque.
