Steve,

>>dbledsoe, i answered how i shoot elsewhere... w/close up stuff<<

Not sure about this response.  I don't recall saying anything about your
close up technique.  I figure how or what someone does is entirely their
business.  My comment was about the DAP Blend Stick and how to use it for
filling in the lettering, hence, I was trying to be helpful not critical.

>>the main thing is my 6HM came in with the rangefinder off so the shop has
to get me another but let me take the bad one home on the condition i leave
it brand new (not even put a strap on it! - understandable) imagine the
frustration of just staring at the thing.  no point in even doing focus
tests with all my lenses because it wont be my body in the long run.<<

I understand the frustration quite well.  I just went through it with a
180/2.8 lens I had to send back.  It wasn't a brand new lens but it was
close enough and the frustration was still the same.

Good luck.

Don
