• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

Question mainly for the Normanites...is there a good camera repair shop in Norman/OKC ? My good telephoto lens messed up this morning, and considering the fact I still shoot with the old-fashioned do-it-yourself SLR, chances of finding a new lens are fairly slim. Thanks for your help, guys!!

Hank, I don't remember the brand, but I think it's a Tonika. It's a 70-250mm and fits my Canon T-70. I'm going to come up to the shop in just a little while.

Angie, I hope they can get it going. Hopefully, something has come loose and can be tightened easily.
If your lens had died, there are hundreds of used optics on 'that auction site" and elsewhere. The Vivitar Series 1 70-210 zoom would make a great replacement for ~50 bucks. The constant aperture f3.5 versions are the best.

Your T-70 is a nice little brick - basically a motorized A1 with "plastic" shell. It has plenty of exposure options, quality guts, and is nearly bomb proof.
