I know what he will have next, I just hope he can let me test it for Overall Color Correction (hint..hint)!

Cheers!

Yes... I'm sensitive to colour, but I've no money... even I've the money, I'll buy your Sky Sensor 2000 first... hee hee hee :P

By the way, hope that the WO VR-1 can help to reduce the CA to my acceptable level.

Have a nice day.
