Subject: [Leica] Paris in March / Trinovid

Hi all....my spouse and I will be traveling to Paris and Normandy for
the week of March 16-24 along with my M6, 50mm Summilux, and a nice
assortment of film.  May have a 28mm Elmarit by then but not sure.  I've
been to Paris three times but only once with the Leica.  I'd appreciate
anyone relaying great photo experiences in Paris and good photo spots
other than the obvious ones.....also, any Luggers on the list planning
to be there at the same time?  We could get together for some Leica
conversation, beverages, and maybe a meal.

By the way....visited my local camera shop today and handled a Leica
10x50 Trinovid binocular....if you think Leica's photo optics are
outstanding, this binocular with make your stand and sing!  Unbelievable
clarity, ease of focusing, and an external pupil diameter that makes the
twilight come alive with brilliance.  With a $1200 price tag, they're a
bit (ok a lot) steep but I can easily see myself taking the plunge.
Bought a Zeiss 8 x 30 binocular last October and their fabulous as well.

Best to all,
