    Wow. That's completely awesome. My "Why didn't I think of that" bin is getting rather full these days.

    Great find, and thanks for sharing!

    Haha great stuff!

    You can put the print on a piece of thin plastic aswell.. that would last quite a bit longer then paper. Very neat idea!

    thx for the link

    Great Find

    What a great find! I now have to find some thin, flexible plastic. The Sigma 50-150 f/2.8 is missing, but it has all my nikkor lenses. :D
