Subject: [Leica] LTM Softies

Hi Folks,

I've just had a mental-health-day with my Leica III, and came across 
a Hama produced softy for my LTM. It's marked 5116 and works with the 
LTM's 3F, 3C and 3A. My Leica is a III, and depending on the source 
of information it is sometimes known as a III F. I think the release 
on the LTM's is pretty soft as it is, but, anyway, it works! You can 
also use it on a Nikon FE, EL, FD2, FD 3 and FTN (which i have, so i 
can use it on that too--cool huh?

Anyway, i don't know if these things are rare or not, but i thought 
i'd mention it. They had one other one there if someone needs one. 
It's about $5 U.S. plus postage from here in NZ. Drop me a line if 
you need one.

Cheers,
Gary
