Leica Thread Mount...formerly known as Leica Screw Mount, but times have
become oh so P.C....the Leicas preceding the M-mount cameras, which had
threaded lens that screwed into the body...as, for that matter, did the
early Pentax SLRs, to say nothing of Canon and various other Leica-like
rangefinders.

(Do I get the prize for responding first, or just wonder why I have so much
time to waste?)

LUGers,
I'm new to the list. So, I hope I'm allowed a stupid question. I see a
lot of references to LTM. What does LTM stand for?
