Harrison,

I can't agree with you more about the cold, "I HATE THE IT!!! also!

It comes from working in the arctic at 40 or 50 below and here you do adapt
to wearing gloves!:) But that doesn't make it any easier for handling an M6
or R camera.

And each time you put the camera to your eye you have to stop breathing so
you can see through the viewfinder. I make very short exposure times!:)
