I've put a couple of no name brand films through it and the shutter seems fine. I think it does take better images than the ordinary M6, and the funny scribble on the top plate is rather artistic. I do like Platinum, and the calfskin is quite nice - that is till it rubbed shoulders with the R8 in the bag and collected a nasty cut ;-) I'll give it a full thrashing next week and let you all have a full report. $75K Australian poorer ;-) Alastair Firkin, http://users.netconnect.com.au/~firkin/AGFhmpg.html
