I agree with you Wally. However at that time I went the quickest route, not having the additional information which I now have. I have made many newbie decisions based on the information at hand, many not correct I choose to call them LE's. I am grateful when a seasoned 928 lover steps in to help.

Making progress on the low end of the learning curve thing, one day at a time...

Thanks Wally

What is the secret to the photo taking? I tried many times, inside/out/side/without a flash/with a flash, etc. I was told they were all not usable. I was using a (now older) digital camera at the time.

Stan I have a Canon power shot A2000 IS
I have to hold the button half way down for it to focus and then it takes great pictures.
It is compact and cheep.

Thanks, but I don't want to buy a camera just to take this one photo :)

Yeah I used a Nikon D60.....(paranoid.. HA) but I would bet that good lighting and a steady hand would produce a good pic on an iPhone 4s or higher (they have the improved camera resolution on them)

I took one from each side, flat, then one looking right down the key from the front tip front towards the back (like I was in the cylinder hole watching it come in).

Someone has a decent digital camera these days, just ask to borrow it or have them take it, camera guys like to be needed.... :)
