Steve,

Thank you for your very kind comment.

The day - I hope it arrives - we meet personally you will see my left hand, 
I had longtime ago (1971) an accident and this made me difficult operate 
some cameras, when I look for a new lens I shall always try if I'm able to 
operate it, even so I've purchased some lenses I really wanted even if they 
was not easy/fast to operate for me. This is one of the main reasons I like 
the size and the operational of the Leica, I'm really used and adapted to it.

Amiti?s
Lluis
