That stupid girl in KC said she left her phone in the car cause she thought I wasn't coming to MO. She wants to marry me or something. That girl in San Diego said "she excels at being a fuck toy". On the leica list they are arguing about the least amount of camera equipment to take on a trip. Whenever I post, no one says anything. I think it's time for Whizzer Stenkelteeth to post... ----- Original Message ----- From: Frank Filippone To: Leica Users Group Sent: Monday, December 27, 2004 4:49 PM Subject: RE: [Leica]What is the least amount of equipment you can use? I use the rule of doubling..... 1 M6 plus 15, 35/2 or 1.4, 75 OR 1 M6 plus 15, 50/1.4, 90TE Thin While this is not the lightest outfit possible, it does what I want. Fast lenses, low ( not ultra low) weight. If I want a really light kit...... M6 with 35/2 . That is almost as light as it gets with M6 cameras. Always: Hoods, but no filters, no flash, just film. TMX100. Plus an emergency roll of Fuji ASA 200 Print FIlm. Since I got the 35/1.4, it may go instead of the 35/2. The weight is marginally the same, but you get an extra stop when you need it....
