[Leica] IMGS: Tests with MM and M246

[Tina Manley]

Thank you, Lluis!  I do intend to travel as light as possible.  Since I
will be covered from head to toe, I don't have to worry about clothes!!  My
carry-on suitcase will be a camera bag with lots of batteries, cards,
portable hard drives, netbook, and cables!  Maybe 2 or 3 cameras and 3 or 4
lenses.  I hope that's all!
