Any suggestions? >> C.R. I would second Alastair Firkin's suggestion of Central Camera, It's about the last of the old fashioned camera shops in Chicago. They generally have a reasonable stock of used Leica M gear-no bargains though. The 2 largest stores near downtown are Helix on Racine Street (3 floors of everything from point and shoots to pro gear), and Calumet on Cherry Street. It is their main location in this country and whatever is in the catalog is generally in stock in the warehouse that adjoins the showroom. I do most of my shopping at Calumet as it's on my way to work and the people are nice. I hope this helps. Richard Wasserman
