Someone mentioned a while back that anyone who uses a light meter isn't "a man." So I offered at that time that perhaps the M7 was, by definition, a "lady's" or "ladies'" camera, offering myself as the example of a so-called "lady" who uses one. As for how you feel when you fondle an inanimate object, that's none of my business.

Remember, because it has a meter, the M7 is a "lady's camera," so I like to keep it nice and clean, just in case it has to go out somewhere special. We wouldn't want it to look dirty now, would we? I still keep all my Matchbox cars in the special collector's case, too. Keeps 'em from getting all scratched up. And no, I am not a Virgo.
