There has indeed and I'm probably going to have a hand in organising it.

It's a very informal get together that a number of us over on the Leica
forum have held for the last two years - first year was in London, second on
Amsterdam and this year it looks like it's going to be Paris.

There's a very simple concept, we get together, have a couple of beers (or
whatever takes your fancy), then we all go out and take a roll of film - or
36 exposures of digital - using a nominated Leica body and/or lens and make
of film. If you use a zoom you restrict yourself to a particular focal
length, if you use digital you use a single ISO setting. A couple of hours
later we meet up, have a few more glasses and wander off. The photographer
picks his/her favourite image and we have an anonymous vote on all the
entries. Of course there's nothing to stop you shooting more than one roll
of film provided that your submitted image comes from that first film.

It's as much of a chance for people who've only met through the forum to
meet as it is a competition. We held it in December for the last two years
and the weather has been dreadful, hence the move to October when, if
nothing else, the rain will be warmer ;-)

Don, there has been talk (on the Leica customer forum) of a Saturday 
Shoot in Paris on October 7.
