I'm a IIIF user and proud of it.
Not used an M in years.
When I think LEICA I think BARNACK

Which some purists would really not call an IIIF
They think a "Barnack" would be much closer to a IIIA.
But its close enough for me.


I'm going to have to divest myself of most my M system to get into full
frame digital; starting tomorrow.
I sell my glass.

But I may keep my M bodies as no ones going to give me enough for them.
And I can use them with my IIIF glass with an adaptor!

In chase I have a hanging Chad in my body.
Which I have now.
