Probably one of the best cameras I've ever owned. The slide was scanned on my Epson 4990 at 2400 ppi, some PP but not much, resized and converted to jpg.

Thanks for the comments, guys. The above is one of my most favorite photos ever.

I rummaged through my scans and came up with a few more I took with the 124 G.

The Queen Mary, permanently moored in Long Beach, California, was turned into a hotel back in the 1980s. Taken on a hazy LA day. The dome in the background used to house Howard Hughes's Spruce Goose amphibious aircraft. These photos were taken in about 1986 or 1987.



A scattering of boats in Los Angeles Harbor.
