The only problem I have is an inaccurate meter; aside from that, it's a lovely camera.

Leitz designed it back in the '80s. Also, Minox makes a digital in the form of the M3. There is no formal Minox users group. If enough of LUGGERs use a Minox 35 from time to time, we might discuss it. I use a GT. Two points: It seemed to have had a hazy viewfinder from the day I got it. And it's a camera that must be used; otherwise the shutter will freeze up. Some say the oil congeals if the camera is stored on its back. But the Minox 35 certainly has character, as do Leicas. br - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
