Go use those UV filters, go precisely measure that M6 metering area, go focus at infinity!!! I won't be watching. I (the filter police, M6 meter police, the hyperfocal focus police...) am going for a week of photographing along the CA coast. Monterey to Big Sur. Mostly 4x5 Linhof for landscapes, some R7 for macro and telephoto, and some M6 around town. 60 sheets of quickload Velvia for the Linhof, a brick (no pun intended) of 35mm Velvia for the R7, a few rolls of E200 and T400CN for the M6. AND... A VERY VERY PATIENT WIFE, who will sit for hours, log my exposures, label exposed film, and continue to smile while I'm having fun. No xray machines this trip. It's only 1hr 15min from home. I'm taking borrowed Leica UV and B+W MC UV filters. I am going to run some flare tests. You notice I said borrowed. See you all next week, Jim
