Bought my M3 in Sweden in 1982, while working there. It's gone all over the world with me. In the last couple of years, it's gotten M4-2 and M6 friends to play with. Leicas: SS M3, M4-2, M6, IIIf 21/2.8, 35/2, bugeye 35/2, 50/1.4, DR 50/2, 90/2, 90/2.8, (2)135/4, 280/4.8, Viso II Others: Several Contax SLRs, Zeiss Contarex Bullseye, Contax II, Kiev Contax RF clone. All are users; I don't have anything that I don't shoot with at least occasionally. 3 Leica M bodies and 2 Contax SLRs are my main working cameras, but I find that I'm doing less and less with the SLRs. Early this year, I started using a Viso II, and find that I'm really happy with it when doing closeup stuff. I'm interested in almost everything. I read a lot of science and history; I have recently been reading a lot of design and typography books. I like movies and good science fiction. I spend a lot of time sitting in front of my Mac by myself, working on big projects. However, to compensate for keeping me isolated sometimes, my Mac also brings in LUGnuts from all over the world.
