If the climate was a matter of fact, why australia was so impacted, just in the middle of their hottest season ?
social distance is the key. it is also the key to disorganise the country's economy...
In France, we have a free health's care (we directly pay it with our taxes and vat). so we had to maintin it under a critical level.

You have to consider also what those "people" get as information.
in France, a (hidden) law said that the FFP2 mask stocked in 2009 (for H1N1 ou H5N2 i Don't remember) witch were going to be too old, and instead of replace them, the (previous?) governement said that the companies who need them should buy and keep them. of course, nobody (hospital theimself) heard about this law.
Since 3 weeks i am contained, I cannot but FFP2 mask, or even medical single use mask.
So the governement said that the mask vas not usefull for "standard" people, reserved only for medical staf and contamined people.
Now the governements theirself are in war about those masks.
Chinese companies now sells their mask at the better giving, given words are now an old way of selling.

You must use the hydroalcoolic gel when you cannot wash your hands with soap. soap is more efficient, but you need water.

You can compare Italy where the containment has been done in several times, from the north to the South, and France where the containment has been done in one time: march the 17th.

In France, the (flat) mail is delivered half time (1 day on 2)
for packets, it is an other story… the main distributors are already stopped.
my Bathtub is leaking, I cannot fix the leak.
I had to clean everything myself, and put a pan under to get the leak "a bit fixed".
I'll see next month for a sanitary siphon.

in 1918, there was no autoimune survivors.
I mean that there was no Aids, no MS (multiple sclerosis), no organic transplantation, no chemotherapy. a lot of people that are today alive would be dead in 1920's.
people today is getting older, but their heath is quite "worse". those people are now the first victims of Covid-19

I've got a MX, a ME-S and a Z1. in that order.
I became lasy and use my MX as second unit, with a different kind of film, such as 400 asa B&W or colour slides when the ME has more standards films.
Then came the Z1, but I kept the MX. easy to use, strong, robust as a stone.
the MX need more time to 'perfect' the picture. the DoF lever is not easy to find with a winder who helps to keep this small thing in your hand…
the best idea of the MX was the little prism in the top of the viewer that shows the apperture ring on the lens directly in the viewer.
my very first picture with the Z1 vas a juvenile dolphin, at about 6 in the Morning, gently swimming around our boat in Maldive, just at 1 meter from me.
Everybody onboard was sleeping. I slowly get in my cabin in order to get my camera, go back to the deck, but the 'bip' of the "good focus" afraid the dolphin and I could never take such a picture…
The Z1 is a perfect body, but the MX is a must have when you are not in the hurry.
Now I'm rather dealing with DSLR, but I wont leave my 3 SLR

No tripod, a lot of disturbing lights, my first FA* 400 shoot. I think this lens is magic…

I had a look to the 360, it was equivalent in size with my 330FTZ, and easyer to put it in a bag when it is in his housing than the 330. I got it.:)

Ok, thanks a lot.
I wonder witch Flash could be equivalent to the onboard flash on a K7 ? just to add a bit of light in the center at 1 or 2 meter, to compense a small back-light?

Does a AF-330FTZ is compatible with a K1 ?
I tried with mine, but the battery leaked their acid. I had to disassemble everything and clean the oxydation on the contacts. By the way, Phosphoric acid with water cleans the contact perfectly.
Regards,
Benoît.
