Got to sort of look over the shoulder at a confidential memo (he was aware of it-just not officially). The TTL M6 Hm is $2295. They are not continuing the Non TTL cameras. The 90 M is Apo and Asph. I whined to the Kodak rep about the loss of Ektar 25 and sapping the contrast out of the new PRN. He said not to complain until after Photokina(wink, wink). I have been looking for a color print in 120 size and w/ the loss of reala and RG25, a hole developed for a fine grained saturated c-41 product available in 35 and 120 (sort of like to get one film and stick to it) Fuji Rep gave me a Superia 100 in 120 size supposedly a new formulation and told me to watch for NPC soon. Contax sort of confirmed the 2 1/4 story. Hold on to those HM's the rep said they've been on back order since their introduction. I would love to find out how many were made.
