I am a photojournalist based in the U.K, shooting mainly reportage and features for U.K magazines. I have been using M6's for years but have recently got an R8, which I already like a lot. I am using it with the 21-35 asph zoom which is outstanding. If anyone is interested I could put some shots up somewhere to show how useful and sharp this lens is. For me it makes the R system viable, as for years I have shot with 24 and 35mm nikkors, and the zoom kills them dead. Any way, enough. As a matter of interest, I am selling my M6 TTL 0.58 black, grip and 24 asph Elmarit, hood, leica uv and voigtlander finder to pay for the aforementioned. Both in mint condition, cases etc etc. Seen almost no use. Camera;£1111, lens, £888. Also 35mm summicron m, early-ish,no.2317648. Again, hood and Leica uv. Great user, perfect optics, totally straight, £333. I am interested in a drive or winder for the R8 so if anyone has one please let me know. Thanks a lot. I am in Bristol, U.K. If, by any strange whim you would care to look at any of my photos and stories, please take a leisurely look at www.nospin.co.uk. See if you can tell me which photos were taken with my M6, and which with an F4. Apologies If I have broken any protocols by posting this generally. Thanks, and best to you all, David White. - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
