Particularly to someone who has the same 3 M6 cameras since 1985 and they still look pretty damn good for that age considering the locations and conditions they have been "worked under!" Just because we don't dickie around with twinkie clothes to keep them extra clean and looking pretty, doesn't mean we don't take care of them. Hell I make my living from them and I'd be pretty damn stupid not to look after them under the circumstance! I can just imagine last year what the thoughts were when that old cow let me have it all over the Noctilux and M6, not to mention me. :) Hell I just did a quick wipe and got on with shooting and worried about cleaning off all the "cow shit" later. Did it make any difference to the M6 and Noctilux? Nope, only on really warm days! :) ted
