List, Speaking of not having a camera, can someone recommend one that I could use to take close-up pictures of piano related things? I need to get me one. Occasionally, I run into things I'd love to have a picture of. Bad repairs, good repairs, oddities, etc. Like when we had a newer type Kawai vertical action totally vandalized a couple of years ago. Thankfully the policeman had a camera and I was able to download his pictures into my computer. Thanks.
